What else can I help you with?
What happens when the blood passes the lung?
It picks up oxygen
What happens when blood fills lung?
the simple answer is drowning. Blood is a fluid just like water, and it causes the same effect as drowning.
What happens when you have blood clots in ones lungs?
A blood clot in the heart could affect the lungs in a number of ways. It could potentially block the pulmonary artery and prevent blood from traveling from the heart to the lung. That would reduce the amount of nutrients reaching that lung and the lung could suffer damage. The blood clot could also travel into the lung (if it is small enough to move through the pulmonary artery) and block blood flow into and out of the lung. The person usually feels short of breath and may cough up blood if that happens. This is called a pulmonary embolism and can be fatal if untreated.
What happens to the blood as it passes through the pulmonary capillaries?
There is an exchange with oxygen, nutrients, and carbon dioxide and water vapor.
What does perfusion of the lung involve?
absorpition of oxygen from the blood into the lung
What is taken from blood when it is pumped to the lung?
When blood is pumped to the lung, carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the alveolus. The pumonary artery carries the blood from the heart to the lungs.
What blood travels from the lung to the heart?
red blood
What do your lung take out of your blood?
The lung takes carbon dioxide out of your blood and replaces it with oxygen.
What happens if bloods right atrium does not function?
the blood doesn't get efficiently pumped into the right ventricle so it isn't efficiently pumped into the lung to get oxygen
What happens to a red blood cell between the time it leaves a lung and the time it returns?
The red blood cells first gather oxygen from the lung before leaving it, and then enter the capillaries and give off oxygen and nutrients and then leave, back to the lungs to repeat this process. Hope this helped! Brynne
Why is it not necessary to send all the blood to the lung?
It is! We do send all the blood to the lung that's why its in seies with the rest systemic curculation not in parralel!
What does the blood collect from the lungs?
the lung collects oygenation blood
