Is blood in the right atrium high in oxygen or carbon dioxide?
ForensicMonster1
In normal human adult physiology, the CO2 concentration in the right atrium is relatively high (typically 46mmHg). In contrast, after exchange in the lungs, blood entering the left atrium has a CO2 concentration of roughly 40 mmHg.
This will be different in some heart conditions and fetal circulation.

∙ 9y agoYes, the blood entering the right atrium low in oxygen because it has just returned to the heart after nourishing the body with needed oxygen.

How oxygen and carbon dioxide are carried by the blood?
Mostly nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide.
Which side of the heart does blood go in to?
Both! Blood enters the atria (upper chambers) on both sides of the heart at the same time. Blood from the body, carrying carbon dioxide, enters the right atrium. Blood from the lungs, carrying oxygen, enters the left atrium. The two atria contract together, pumping the blood into the two ventricles (lower chambers). The ventricles then contract, pumping blood out of the heart. Blood from the right ventricle goes to the lungs, where it loses its carbon dioxide and picks up oxygen. It then goes to the left atrium. Blood from the left ventricle goes to the body, where it delivers oxygen and picks up carbon dioxide. See: http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/body/factfiles/heart/heart.shtml
What of these is a waste product of cells blood water oxygen or carbon dioxide?
Carbon dioxide and water
What happen to the blood in the right atrium?
a little oxygen and a lot of carbon dioxide
What happens to the oxygen when it reaches the alveoli?
oxygen enters the blood and carbon dioxide
Does blood that flows into the right atrium contain a lot of oxygen and a little carbon dioxide?
Blood that flows into the right atrium is returning from the body and is deoxygenated. This means that it contains less oxygen and mostlycarbon dioxide.
When blood flows into the right atrium from the body what does it contain?
a little oxygen and a lot of carbon dioxide
What contain when the blood flows into the right atrium from the body?
a little oxygen and a lot of carbon dioxide
What does the blood delivers oxygen to the body cells and collects?
Blood celivers oxygen to body cells and collects carbon dioxide and other waste products
What type of blood enters he right atrium?
As blood leaves the right atrium, it proceeds to the right ventricle. From there, it moves into the lungs and exchanges its carbon dioxide for oxygen in preparation for transport around the body.
Does the right atrium have carbon dioxide filled blood?
yes
What Blood which contains carbon dioxide and lack oxygen?
Venous blood is loaded with carbon dioxide and low in oxygen Arterial blood is rich in oxygen with little carbon dioxide
Blood in the right atrium contains what gas?
carbon dioxide
What type of blood has low oxygen and high carbon dioxide?
Deoxygenated blood is low in oxygen and high in carbon dioxide.
What substances flow through the right atrium?
The right atrium receives "de-oxygenated" blood (blood from the body containing less oxygen and more carbon dioxide) and the right ventricle sends this blood toward the lungs.
What do your lung take out of your blood?
The lung takes carbon dioxide out of your blood and replaces it with oxygen.
List the mechanisms for transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood?
The mechanisms for transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood are the lungs. The blood vessels are also needed for transporting oxygen and dispelling carbon dioxide.
