Can many elements can be seen and touched?
Yes all elements have a freezing/sublimation temperature so all elements can be seen or touched it all depends on the pressure and temperature. Some of the pressures and temperatures that the element needs to be in to be touched may prevent you from touching it.add. For example the Oxygen in the air can be touched, but you'd not know it. But Liquid oxygen, a nice light blue colour, could be touched but you'd freeze your finger.And Helium cannot be frozen as far as we know.
Does the pulmonary artery in adults carry oxygen rich blood or oxygen poor blood?
poor
The blood gains its oxygen in which part of the body?
The blood gets oxygen in the heart. Once the oxygen has been replenished, the blood is sent back out to the organs.
What Carries oxygen-rich blood around your body?
The simplest answer is "arteries," which generally carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the body, but the pulmonary veins also carry oxygen-rich blood. The lungs have oxygen that gives oxygen to the cells. Our body is a closed system so the blood never leaves the body system unless we are cut. After the blood has used up all of the oxygen it has the blood is recirculated through the heart and lungs once more! Thus this process goes on and on! An ARTERY carries oxygen rich or oxygenated blood from the heart to the body cells to give oxygen to them. I remember this by: Artery Away Arteries carry oxygen rich blood from the lungs to other parts of the body. Veins return oxygen poor blood to the heart where it gets recirculated through the lungs and then throughout the body again. The arteries.
Why you inhale oxygen only?
when you inhale air into your lungs the concentration of oxygen in the blood can be no greater than that in the air.As the blood reaching the lungs is lower in oxygen there is transfer from the air to the blood stream until the concentrations stabilise.However there is no active transfer.Therefore there will always be Oxygen in exhaled air even if the initial oxygen concentration in the blood is zero as the air oxygen and the blood oxygen will reach a steady state equilibrium
What color is blood that is not exposed to oxygen?
Human blood has red color when oxygenated which is mainly because of red blood cells. Its color changes to purple when present in oxygen deprived circumstances. To restore the color the blood has to be placed in oxygen rich environment.
What color is oxygen-poor blood?
Oxygen-poor blood is dark red; oxygen-rich blood is bright red.
Why does capillary change color as it passes by your body cells?
Capillaries change color as they pass by body cells as the blood they contain loses oxygen. Oxygen-rich blood has a brighter color than oxygen-poor blood.
What determines your blood type?
The determination of blood's color will depend on if there is oxygen in the blood or not oxygenated blood is a dark red color, the same color of the blood that comes out of am open scratch, Or Blue if it has little to no oxygen at all
What is the color of blood when it have oxygen?
red
What color is your blood with no oxygen?
RED. Blood is always red.
Why does blood change color at the lungs?
Blood changes color at the lungs because it unloads carbon dioxide and absorbs oxygen. Red blood cells that are carrying oxygen are a brighter red color than red blood cells that are depleted of oxygen.
What color is blood when it comes into contact with oxygen?
Blood is always red.
What carries oxygen and gives our blood its color?
Red blood cells.
Why are the lungs pinkish red?
Lungs are pink in color because they are full of oxygen rich blood. Oxygen poor blood, on the other hand, has blue color to it.
Why is it when you get blood work your blood is red?
Oxygen has hit the bood. Although the true color of blood is blue, when blood is exposed to oxygen it turns red.
What color are blood vessels when they have no oxygen?
