What happens if levels of carbon dioxide or oxygen in your body change?
if the oxygen levels are too low, your muscles won't get the oxygen they need from the blood cells. if the carbon dioxide levels are too high, well, carbon dioxide is a waste product, the same thing will happen. this is why when you hold your breathe you pass out. if the muscles don't get the oxygen they need they can't move.
How do identify carbon dioxide?
With a carbon dioxide detector, meter, or gauge. If oxygen levels and dangerously low and carbon dioxide dangerously high you will have trouble breathing. -written by a weirdo With a carbon dioxide detector, meter, or gauge.

Which form of carbon burns in oxygen to give carbon dioxide?
All of them. At a high enough temperature, even diamond will burn, and produce (ridiculously expensive) carbon dioxide.
The elements that all carbonates contain are carbon and?
All carbonates are comprised of carbon and oxygen. Carbonated beverages, such as soda, have a high concentration of carbonate gas.
How is oxygen removed from iron ore?
Iron ore is mixed with coke (almost pure carbon from coal) and roasted at high temperatures. The carbon reacts with the oxygen to produce carbon dioxide leaving the elemental iron.
Where does oxygen pass into your blood?
Oxygen diffuses into the blood in the lungs and binds to the hemoglobin since the oxygen concentration is high and the carbon dioxide concentration is low. The blood is pumped to the body. The hemoglobin releases the oxygen to the tissues because here, the concentration of oxygen is low and that of carbon dioxide is high.
Does the exchange of carbon dioxide depend on the concentration of oxygen in the alveoli and the blood?
No. It depends on the concentration of carbon dioxide in the alveoli and the blood. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the capillaries of the alveoli is higher than the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air, so carbon dioxide in the capillaries of the alveoli diffuses out of the capillaries into the alveoli of the lungs and is exhaled.
Molecues of suger water oxygen and carbon dioxide do not require what to move from area of high to low concentration?
No energy is required to move molecules of oxygen, carbon dioxide, sugar, or water from areas of high to low concentration across a membrane. Instead, diffusion is used.
What type of blood has low oxygen and high carbon dioxide?
Deoxygenated blood is low in oxygen and high in carbon dioxide.
Which kind of vein carries blood with high oxygen and low carbon dioxide?
The pulmonary veins are high in oxygen and low in carbon dioxide. All other veins are high in carbon dioxide and low in oxygen.
Is carbon dioxide deadly in high concentration?
It is not toxic or anything. But, if you breathe only carbon dioxide with no oxygen for a sustained period of time, you will die from a lack of oxygen.
Where does the heart pump blood low in oxygen and high in carbon dioxide?
The heart pumps blood low in oxygen and high in carbon dioxide to the lungs, where blood releases carbon dioxide and picks up oxygen.
What does blood leaving the alveoli contain?
a) diffused carbon dioxideb) a high concentration of oxygenc)no gasesd)a high concentration of carbon dioxidee)waste materials needed by cellswhy would u Evan do dis i mean i no what the choices are da*nthey contain no gases
What is the Diffusion of gases between alveoli and blood?
The Diffusion is the exchange of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) between the alveoli and the blood. So blood that is pumping through the capillaries in the lungs has a low concentration of O2 and a high concentration of CO2, in the alveoli it is high concentration O2 low concentration CO2. Therefore the 2 gases exchange across the alveoli membrane by diffusion trying to establish a concentration gradient.
Is carbon dioxide the same as carbon monoxide?
No it's not the same. Carbon monoxide is CO and carbon dioxide is CO2. Carbon monoxide comes out of car exhausts and is poisonous if breathed in. CO2 is much less dangerous, though it is also a health hazard if the concentration is high enough. There are two oxygens atoms attached to the carbon atom in carbon dioxide (thus the name). There is only one oxygen atom attached to the carbon atom.
Are high levels of carbon dioxide bad?
well, you don't breath carbon dioxide, you breath oxygen
What environment does a capnophile prefer?
prefer in high concentration of carbon dioxide
