How does the circulatory system help your cells get rid of carbon dioxide?

The blood flowing through the veins carry the carbon dioxide from the cells of all parts of the body to the heart. Hence we say that the veins transmit the De-oxygenated blood from all parts of the body to the heart. The De-oxygenated blood collected in the heart flows to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. The blood gets oxygenated in the lungs. Then the oxygenated blood flows to the heart through the pulmonary vein. Then the oxygenated blood flows to all parts of the body through the arteries. So blood flows into the heart through the veins, and flows out of the heart through the arteries. Normally the De-oxygenated blood flows through the veins and the oxygenated blood flows through the artery. The only exceptions are the pulmonary artery that transmits de-oxygenated blood from heart to the lungs and the pulmonary vein that transmits oxygenated blood from lungs to heart. This is because blood flows into the heart by veins and flows out of the heart by arteries.

What system helps take the oxygen to the body cells and carbon dioxide away from the cells?
the circulatory system
What body system is responsible for transporting carbon dioxide from cells to lungs?
circulatory
Does the circulatory system transport carbon dioxide away from the cells?
The respiratory system does "take away" carbon dioxide by replacing it with oxygen, through breathing. Exhaling causes the body to expel carbon dioxide and inhale oxygen.
Where does gas get exchanged in the circulatory system?
In lungs where carbon dioxide is released and oxygen absorbed and in cells where oxygen is given to cells and carbon dioxide is absorbed by blood.
What is the circulatory system does?
delivers oxygen and nutrients to your cells and takes away carbon dioxide and waste from your cells
What does the cs remove from the body cells?
The CS should stand for the circulatory system. The circulatory system removes carbon dioxide and other waste products from the body cells. :)
Where does oxygenation occur?
Oxygen exchanges occur in the lungs where the circulatory system takes in oxygen and releases carbon dioxide into the lungs. Oxygen exchanges also occur in the capillaries where the circulatory system delivers oxygen to the cells and picks up carbon dioxide from the cells.
How is the respiratory system linked to the circulatory?
respiratory system supplies oxygen to body with the circulatory system distributing it to all cells. Circulatory system carries expired vapors from cells (e.g., carbon dioxide) to the lungs where they are expired in the breath.
What does the circulatory system deliver to the cell?
Circulatory systems deliver food and oxygen to cells and remove carbon dioxide and metabolic wastes.
How is circulatory system like a garbage truck?
Carries waste products (carbon dioxide) away from The cells.
What is the other system the circulatory system works with to oxygenate the body?
The circulatory system works with the respiratory systemto get oxygen to the cells of the body. These two systems also work together to get carbon dioxide out of the cells and out of the body.
What does the main organ of the circulatory system do?
The main organ of the circulatory system is the heart, and it pumps blood to the cells of organs and tissues, giving them oxegyn and removing carbon dioxide.
