this better to say blood with high CO2 concentration is dark and blood with high CO (Carbon monoxide toxemia) is bright, so O2 saturated blood is just NORMAL.

Why is some blood bright red?
because of the presence of oxygen gas in the haemoglobin of the red blood cell.
Red blood cells with high oxygen concentrations are bright red because of the presence of?
Red blood cells are red due to the presence of the protein hemoglobin. Each molecule of hemoglobin has 4 molecules of iron associated with it. When oxygen bonds to the iron it causes a reaction that makes the hemoglobin appear red. And because the density of hemoglobin in is so dense in a red blood cell (approximately 97% of its volume is filled with it) the cell also looks red.
What kind of simple chemical reaction goes on in a firework?
the white bright light produced in fire works is due to burning of magnesium in the presence of oxygen magnesium+oxygen=magnesiumoxide
What is bright red colored blood and spurts out the body?
the blood is bright red because of the oxygen from the air
What is microaerophile?
Microaerophiles are microorganisms which are unable to grow when oxygen concentrations reach those found in air (20%) but nevertheless whose growth requires the presence of some oxygen (e.g., 2 to 10%). "Microaerophiles appear to grow best in the presence of a small amount of free oxygen. They grow below the surface of the medium in a culture tube at the level where oxygen availability matches their needs
Which is found in the highest concentrations in the atmosphere?
Oxygen
How does oxygen enter the capillaries?
Oxygen enter the capillaries by diffusion due to difference in oxygen concentrations.
Brass gets discoloured in air because of the presence of which of the gases in air?
oxygen
Are hydrogen and helium and oxygen poisonous?
Hydrogen and helium are generally considered non-toxic since they don't react with our bodies and are not harmful when inhaled or ingested in small amounts. Oxygen, on the other hand, is essential for human life and is not toxic in normal concentrations. However, excessively high levels of oxygen (such as in pure oxygen environments) can be toxic and potentially cause harm.
Why don't obligate anaerobes require catalyse?
Because they die in the presence of catalase. They also die in the presence of oxygen, due to the absence of superoxide dismutase and catalase. It converts the lethal superoxide inside their cells due to the presence of oxygen.
Oxygen molecules move into a cell and carbon dioxide molecules leave because of differences in concentrations considered filtration?
Yes
Is blood red because it has rich oxygen in it?
Yes, oxygenated blood is bright red
