What is the sequence of oxygen carbon dioxide and the blood stream?

When we inhale, the blood in the capillaries in our lungs will get the oxygen (the blood will be oxygenated) and it will go to the heart, first in the left atrium,mitral valve,left ventricle and to the aortic valve that will transport it to the different parts of body. Then, when the blood is deoxygenated, it will go to the inferior vena cava, right atrium,tricuspid valve,right ventricle, and pulmonary veins and the deoxygenated blood will go to the capillaries in our lungs and transport the carbon dioxide to the alveoli and we exhale it.

What are the major gases involved in circulation and respiration?
oxygen and carbon dioxide ('O' and 'CO2') . We breath in oxygen and breath out carbon dioxide (the unwanted gas). Oxygen is used is transported through the blood stream (haemoglobin) tis the main gas in circulation.
How carbon dioxide get out your body?
carbon dioxide is expelled from cells into the blood stream, carried to the lungs, and exhaled.
How does frog take oxygen and refuse carbon dioxide?
Frogs have a specialized breathing system that allows them to take in oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide. They have lungs that enable them to breathe air, but they also have the ability to respire through their skin. When they are in water, they can absorb oxygen through their skin, and when they are on land, they primarily use their lungs to breathe air.
How is oxygen and carbon dioxide released from blood?
I'm not exactly sure what you're asking, so I'll answer this two ways. oxygen is used in our bodies at a cellular level. It is used and carbon dioxide is a byproduct of its function. Oxygen is carried in the blood stream on your red blood cells on a transport car called hemoglobin. This allows for the oxygen to get to the cells that need it. When the carbon dioxide is produced, it is released into the blood stream. Our bodies know when there is more carbon dioxide because it is acidic in the blood, allowing for our body to increase our respirations and breathe off the carbon dioxide (co2)---for our bodies to do this, this of veins as walls of a house, and the walls keep in the CO2. On the outside of the house is the air, like our lungs, so a door needs to be opened to allow the CO2 to be transferred across. There are tiny little spaces between each cell we have, and the ones in the lungs allow for oxygen and carbon dioxide to cross (the doorways). When we're sick with a bad cough, with a chest infection, the doorways can be plugged with the mucous and cause problems with how the oxygen and c02 cross from the blood to the lungs, and the feeling that we cannot breath. (this on top of a few other things) Hope that made sense!
Does carbon monoxide helps oxygen get into the blood stream?
No. Quite the opposite: carbon monoxide binds to hemoglobin, which prevents the blood from carrying oxygen. This condition can be fatal.
The gas that goes into the blood stream through the blood is?
Oxygen is brought into the blood stream by inhalation. Carbon dioxide moves out of the cells, into the blood, and taken to the lungs to be exhaled. Oxygen in, carbon dioxide out.
Why does oxygen and carbon dioxide move from the alveoli into the blood stream?
To Filter the blood
What is the one use of iron?
To carry oxygen and carbon dioxide through the blood stream.
What is the use the use of ironing?
To carry oxygen and carbon dioxide through the blood stream.
What supplies oxygen and eliminates carbon dioxide from the blood stream?
Lungs and Lungs. Blood that contains carbon dioxide means it is lacking oxygen, and the carbon dioxide was put into the blood as a waste product by all the other organs. The blood then reaches the lungs and exchanges the carbon dioxide for oxygen. The now oxygen-rich blood is transported to the heart where it is pumped throughout the body, and the carbon dioxide is exhaled from the lungs.
What happen to the air you inhale?
It goes through your respiratory system, and into the blood stream, where the oxygen takes the place of 'old oxygen', which has been converted to carbon dioxide, and you breath out the carbon dioxide. That is repeated with each breath.
What are the major gases involved in circulation and respiration?
oxygen and carbon dioxide ('O' and 'CO2') . We breath in oxygen and breath out carbon dioxide (the unwanted gas). Oxygen is used is transported through the blood stream (haemoglobin) tis the main gas in circulation.
How does the plant know when you're talking?
plants "breathe" carbon dioxide, and when you inhale you are taking normal air (made mostly out of carbon dioxide and oxygen) and filter out the oxygen which you filter through your blood stream. Then when you exhale you are exhaling carbon dioxide and, well, i think that got the point across
How does carbon get back into the air from the food you eat?
when your food is converted into energy carbon dioxide is added to the blood stream and from there is exhaled out. i.e. when you breathe, oxygen in- carbon out
What do people breathe into the air?
People ( Humans) exhale nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and trace amounts of other gases. The nitrogen and other gases remain unreacted. from the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is the result of breathing in (inhaling) oxygen travelling around the body in the blood stream, being used at the muscles etc., thereby being converted to carbon dioxide, which is carried in the blood stream to be exhaled. The carbon dioxide, being a heavy gas, falls to earth, is breathed in by green plant life, undergoes photosynthesis, and oxygen is released. The carbon compoent remains in the plant as biomass. The two gases , oxygen and carbon dioxide, are part of the oxygen/carbon cycle.
Where does carbon dioxide exerted by the lungs come from?
From the mitochondria ( powerhouse of cells ) in cells that produces energy from oxygen inhaled and relieves carbon dioxide through osmosis in blood stream which then is exchanged by lungs for oxygen we inhale and the cycle continues.
What happens to your respiratory system?
It filters air and supplies oxygen to the blood stream. It also carries away carbon dioxide.
