What part of the blood carries oxygen?
The red blood cells carry the oxygen in blood.
Why is oxygen needed in blood?
Because your cells need oxygen. Blood has Hemoglobins inside it, which carry oxygen.
What color are the blood cells when they carry oxygen?
the answer is that i dont know
How oxygen is transported?
Oxygen is transported with the help of Red blood cells as the red blood cells contain haemoglobin to can carry oxygen from one place to another.
What is the carrier of food nutrients and oxygen?
blood vessels. they are the pathways or tubes in the body through which blood flows. the blood vessel are of three kinds. these are the arteries, veins, and capillaries. the arteries carry blood away from the heart. the veins bring blood back to the heart. capillaries carry blood rich in oxygen to the tissue, and carry away waste products
Does carbon monoxide reduce the amount of oxygen the blood cells carry?
It binds with them the same way oxygen should, but it won't let go. That means that oxygen is no longer capable of binding with the blood cells. That means that although one breathes oxygen, one does not get the oxygen through the body.
How does smoking effect running?
Smoking can weaken the lungs and reduce breathing capacity. Also smoking can reduce oxygen level of blood thus blood can not carry enough oxygen to the necessary organ.
What are the differences between the three types of blood vessels?
Arteries carry blood away from the hart, they have the highest blood pressure and amount of oxygen. (except for pulmonary arteries) Capillaries carry blood from arteries to veins. They are a single cell wide and exchange chemicals with nearby tissue. Veins carry blood towards the heart, and have the lowest amount of oxygen. (except for pulmonary veins)
Do arteries carry oxygen-rich blood to capillaries?
Systemic Arteries carry oxygen rich blood (also called oxygenated blood). Pulmonary Arteries carry oxygen poor (deoxygenated) blood
Is blood in the arteries in rich in oxygen?
By definition, ALL arteries carry Oxygen rich blood. Veins carry oxygen depleted blood.
Where does veins carry oxygen depleted blood to?
Veins carry oxygen depleted blood to the heart.
Do Red Blood cells use some of their oxygen?
Yes they do, but very little compared to the amount that they carry.
What kind of blood does vein carry?
Usually veins carry blood low in oxygen back to the heart except for the pulmonary veins. They carry blood higher in oxygen.
Which blood celld carry oxygen?
red blood cels are the oxygenated cells..[ie carry oxygen]
Does your blood carry food?
no it carry's oxygen
What parts carry blood away from the heart?
Arteries carry Oxygen rich blood away from the heart. While our viens carry Oxygen poor blood back to get filed with more Oxygen
What are the tiny blood vessels that carry oxygen rich blood?
The tiniest blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood are the capillaries. These capillaries form a bed. The arterioles that carry the blood into the bed are high in oxygen. The oxygen is released to the cells. The rest of the bed is low in oxygen and venules carry deoxygenated blood to the veins back to the heart.
