What Types of tissues is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body?
The cardiac muscle of the heart has primary responsibility for pumping blood throughout the body.
Which blood type brings oxygen close to cells?
Erythrocytes or red blood cells carry oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the bloodstream. So oxygen is carried inside of these cells. It is delivered to the tissues (which are composed of cells) when oxygen-containing red blood cells enter a capillary that passes through a tissue. The oxygen leaves the red blood cells and passes through the wall of the capillary where it can be taken up by the cells of the tissue. Blood type refers to particular proteins called antigens on the surface of these red blood cells. Some people's red blood cells have the A antigen on their surface; these people have type A blood. Some people have the B antigen and are type B. Some have both (AB) and some have neither (type O). Any given person will only have one blood type (you only have type O or type A blood) and all of the red blood cells in that person are the same type. No one of these blood types is any better or worse than transporting oxygen.
What brain structure is responsible for quick reactions?
The amygdala is the brain structure that is responsible for quick reactions. These types of quick reactions can be aggressive or meant to be helpful. This area is also responsible for fear.
What cells are responsible for disposing cellular waste?
Lysosomes are responsible for managing waste in cell. They contain different types of enzymes
What is the element you need to breathe?
Well their are over 100 types of elements and the one we need to breathe with is oxygen.
What two types of blood circulate throughout the body?
oxygen blood cells and non-oxygen blood cells
What Types of tissues is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body?
The cardiac muscle of the heart has primary responsibility for pumping blood throughout the body.
What types of biological molecules can the blood not transport safely throughout the body without modifications?
oxygen
What supplies oxygen?
Plants and certain types of bacteria are responsible for producing oxygen through the process of photosynthesis. Plants take in carbon dioxide and water, using sunlight to create oxygen as a byproduct. Additionally, algae in the ocean also contribute to the production of oxygen through photosynthesis.
Mention 6 types of cells present in animals?
Here are six types of cells present in animals: Epithelial cells: These cells form the linings of the body's internal and external surfaces, such as the skin, digestive tract, and blood vessels. Muscle cells: These cells are responsible for the movement of the body and its internal organs. There are three types of muscle cells: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Nerve cells: Also known as neurons, these cells are responsible for transmitting signals throughout the body's nervous system. Red blood cells: These cells are responsible for carrying oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues and organs. White blood cells: These cells are part of the immune system and are responsible for defending the body against infections and foreign invaders. Stem cells: These cells have the ability to develop into many different types of cells in the body, making them important for tissue repair and regeneration.
What are the types of problems caused by producing transporting and using petroleum?
its a problem because it can spill during transportation.
What is the state of the oxygen in an oxygen tank?
The oxygen inside an oxygen tank is typically in a compressed or liquefied state, depending on the type of tank. The pressure inside the tank keeps the oxygen in its condensed form until it is released through a regulator for use.
What is a Liquid Connective Tissue?
Liquid connective tissue refers to blood, which is made up of various types of cells suspended in a liquid matrix known as plasma. It serves important functions such as transporting oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and waste products throughout the body, as well as providing immune system components for defense against infections. Blood is considered a specialized form of connective tissue.
Oxygen and sulfur are what types of matter?
Oxygen and sulfur are elements.
What is special about each of these types of cells?
Stem cells: Have the potential to develop into different cell types in the body. Neurons: Specialized cells that transmit information throughout the nervous system. Red blood cells: Contain hemoglobin to transport oxygen throughout the body. Muscle cells: Allow for movement and typically contain contractile proteins.
What is irons main function in the body?
hemoglobin and myoglobin are 2 types of iron in the human body.
What is one of the most common microbes?
Bacteria are one of the most common types of microbes and are commonly known as germs. Protista is also common and is a plant-like microbe that is responsible for all the oxygen in the atmosphere.
