no, they transport vigear to the brain through blood.
The brain requires about 15-20% of the body's blood supply to receive the necessary oxygen and nutrients for proper function.
It pumps blood to and from your lungs to become oxygenated, and then pumps that oxygenated blood to your brain and the rest of your body for your cells to receive oxygen. Apparently it isn't pumping as much blood to your brain as it does most people, though.
This happens to brain tissue that doesn't receive blood
There isn't blood inside brain cells, but the brain does receive a rich blood supply through a network of blood vessels. Blood provides oxygen and nutrients necessary for brain function. However, brain cells (neurons) are not in direct contact with blood. Instead, the blood-brain barrier (BBB) protects brain tissue by regulating the substances that can pass from the bloodstream into the brain, allowing essential nutrients in while keeping harmful substances out. Brain cells get oxygen and nutrients through cerebrospinal fluid and capillaries that transport substances across the blood-brain barrier. This indirect delivery helps maintain a stable environment for brain function.
The brain receives about 20% of the body's oxygen supply and 15-20% of the body's blood flow to support its high energy demands and metabolic activity. This consistent flow of oxygen and nutrients is crucial for maintaining brain function and cognitive performance.
Depending on whether you are A+ or A- you can receive different types of blood. If you have A+ blood you can often receive blood from A+, A-, O+, and O-. However, if you are A- you can only usually receive blood from A- and O-.
The condition where a part of the brain doesn't receive enough blood is known as a "cerebral ischemia." This can occur due to various factors, such as a blockage in blood vessels or a drop in blood flow. Prolonged ischemia can lead to brain cell damage and may result in a stroke if not promptly addressed. Symptoms can vary depending on the affected area of the brain but often include weakness, confusion, or difficulty speaking.
They don't receive blood. They make up the blood.
