Oxygenated blood is carried to the organs through the systemic arteries. These arteries branch into smaller arterioles, which further divide into capillaries where oxygen diffuses into the tissues. Venous blood then carries carbon dioxide away from the organs through the systemic veins back to the heart and lungs for reoxygenation.

What are Tiny blood vessels that pass food and oxygen to cells?

Tiny blood vessels that pass food and oxygen to cells are called capillaries. They are the smallest of the blood vessels and are designed for the exchange of nutrients and waste products between the bloodstream and surrounding tissues. Their thin walls allow for efficient diffusion of oxygen and nutrients into cells.


What is the body organ which oxygen passes through to capillaries?

The alveoli and capillaries in the lungs pass oxygen to the blood. Both have very thin walls, which allow the oxygen to pass from the alveoli to the blood. The capillaries then connect to larger blood vessels, called veins, which bring the oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.

What needs to pass oxygen from lungs to blood vessels?

The alveoli in the lungs are where oxygen is exchanged with carbon dioxide. Oxygen diffuses across the alveolar walls and into the capillaries where it binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells for transport to tissues throughout the body.
