What supply of oxygen exist in the body at any time?
4-6 minutes.
How does the oxygen get from the air to the cell of your body?
from your lungs it is transfered to the heart then pumped through the body
What pumps oxygen-rich blood to the body?
I think you meant "through the body". if that is so: the heart does, it pumps oxygen poor blood to your lungs. then the blood absorbs the oxygen with the help of diffusion. this is like smoke: smoke doesn't stay together, it goes to places where no smoke is. the same counts for your blood, there is no oxygen in it so the oxygen goes into your veins. then the heart pumps it around the body until the oxygen is used up. the process will start over again.Your heart.
What gas is needed to stay alive?
The gas you need to stay alive is Oxygen, you need oxygen to carry vital functions of body, when you inhale oxygen, its goes directly into the lungs and through alveolis, which are present in lungs oxygen get absorbed into blood which is then taken to heart and heart pumps the blood to each and every part and organ of the body, so like this your body works.
Which organ system transports oxygen and nutrients around the body?
The circulatory system (blood and vessels) transports oxygen and nutrients around the body. The heart furnishes the power to move the blood.
Why the heart and the lungs work together?
Your heart supply food and oxygen to your body. When heart wants to supply more oxygen, it beats at faster rate. Simultaneously, you breath at faster rate to consume more oxygen.
What organ in the human body is responsible for food and oxygen?
The heart is responsible for supply of food and oxygen to all the cells in your body. The function is done through blood supply.
What is an exercise that is steady and sustained and at which the heart can supply the oxygen needed the body?
Physical fitness
What does the circulatory system do?
They supply the heart with the necessary oxygen it needs.
Do lungs have anything to do with weakening of heart?
Lungs supply air, oxygen, to the body. Therefore, when the organs do not get enough oxygen, the do not function efficiently.
What is the function of the coronary blood supply?
The coronary blood supply is the arteries which supply the heart itself; in order for the heart to function it needs a good supply of oxygen just the same as any other organ/muscle. Without the coronary blood supply the heart would not be able to pump blood around the body, a disruption in this blood supply would cause a heart attack.
What do the arteries supply and to what?
They supply blood to the body. Arteries supply oxygenated blood throughout the body. Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to bodily tissues. Veins, on the other hand, carry oxygen deprived blood back to the heart.
When you run your body cant supply enough oxygen so what happens?
your heart beats faster to get the blood pumping around your body
What is the term for the entryways to the heart?
The path of the blood has a definite purpose--to supply the blood with oxygen and deliver it to the body's cells. The blood carries oxygen to the body's cells and returns for more. When blood enters the right atrium of the heart, it is returning from the body where it has dropped off its supply of oxygen via osmosis and diffusion into body cells. At the same time, it has picked up waste in the form of carbon dioxide. You can think of the atrium as the "entry way" to the heart.
Why is the heart and lung so important and what are there relationship?
They are important because you need both in order to live. Lungs supply oxygen to breath and your heart supplies out oxygen to your body in order to survive.
Why does heart rate and respiration go up with exercise?
The more you exercise - the more oxygen your body's muscles need. In order for your heart to supply more oxygen - it must beat faster.
What two organs is the heart associated with?
The heart is part of the cardio-vascular system and is mostly assosciated with the lungs since they supply the oxygen which is infused into the blood. The heart then transfers the oxygen enriched blood throughout the body.
