The blood picks up oxygen in the lungs and gives it to all the organs in the body that needs it.
Red blood cells pick up oxygen and deposit carbon dioxide at the lungs
Lungs contain lots of blood. Blood goes to the lungs to pick up oxygen.
lungs
Yes it does
no
The red blood cells pick up oxygen from the air that is inhaled into the lungs. When the red cells pick up the oxygen from the air, they expel carbon dioxide into the lungs to be exhaled.
In the lungs, in the alveolar capillaries
Blood picks up multiple things from cells. They pick up waste products like carbon dioxide and water, and they also pick up oxygen from the lungs.
No, it does everything except picks up oxygen in the LUNGS. It gives up carbon dioxide instead! :)
The lungs
Right ventricle. Blood gets pumped from the body to the lungs where it is oxygenated then returns to the heart where it is pumped to the the other organs that need oxygen, e.g. the brain.
It's not so much that the lungs need alot of blood, but more that the blood depends on the lungs. The nature of the lungs allows the blood to pick up and carry oxogen to the rest of the body and the very thin membranes of the lungs allow the exchange of gasses, oxygen into the blood and carbon dioxide out of the blood.
