What is the unique funcyion of red blood cells?
Red bloood cells carry oxygen through the body to be used by other cells. Red bloood cells contain hemoglobin which is derived from iron and is used to pick up and release the oxygen molecule.
An organisms gametes have double the number of chromosomes found in the organisms body cells.?
No, a gamete has half the number of chromosomes as compared to the organisms body cells.
What system gets oxygen to the cells of the body and rids the body of waste gases. Some organisms use their skin. This is also a cell-level process.?
Cellular Reproduction
In humans which of these is required for carrying oxygen from the lungs to body cells?
Red blood cells carry oxygen to the rest of the body.
What kind of organisms do red blood cells attack?
Red blood cells do not attack other organisms, it is the white blood cells that do this. All the red blood cells do is contain hemoglobin to transport oxygen round the body. They are themselves attacked by malaria parasite.
Body cells release carbon dioxide and what?
oxygen
What important gas do red blood cells in the capillaries absorb and transport throughout the body?
Red blood cells absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide at lungs which was absorbed from other cells in the body during blood circulation, then it releases oxygen to those body cells in order to respire and release energy .
What is the unique funcyion of red blood cells?
Red bloood cells carry oxygen through the body to be used by other cells. Red bloood cells contain hemoglobin which is derived from iron and is used to pick up and release the oxygen molecule.
What carrys oxygen to your body's cells?
The blood carries oxygen around your body and to the body's cells.
What does hemoglobin in red blood cells release?
The hemoglobin in red blood cells releases oxygen to other cells throughout the body.
Why is oxygen important to blood and other cells?
Oxygen is needed for respiration. This is how all our cells release energy. All the body cells and white blood cells therefore need oxygen. Red blood cells don't use oxygen, they undergo anaerobic respiration, but they transport the oxygen needed by other cells.
What is the purpose of white and red blood cells?
Red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body, while white blood cells are part of the immune system and attack foreign organisms that enter the body, like bacteria.
How many chromosomes do body cells of organisms have in relationship to the sex cells of the same organism?
There are 46 chromosomes in the body cells of organisms which have a relationship with the sex cells.
Where do red blood cells drop off oxygen?
Red blood cells release their oxygen in the capillaries. The oxygen diffuses across the capillary wall to reach the body tissues.
What other organisms besides plants and animals need oxygen to live?
Cells, that's why your body needs to circulate oxygenated blood!
An organisms gametes have double the number of chromosomes found in the organisms body cells.?
No, a gamete has half the number of chromosomes as compared to the organisms body cells.
Why is diffusion insufficient to meet the oxygen requirement for multicellular organisms like human?
In single-celled organisms the entire surface of the organisms is in contact with the environments for the diffusion of substances. In multi-cellular organisms all the cells may not be in direct contact with the surrounding environment. So simple diffusion will not meet the requirements of all the cells.
