No, sassy one. To the lungs. Not from. CO2 (carbon dioxide).

How are lungs adapted to get gases into and out of the blood?
k
What organs were the blood exchanges gases with the air?
The lungs.
Transporting carbon dioxide to the lungs a function of blood?
Of course blood involve in transportation of respiratory gases. So blood carry CO2 to lungs.
Why lungs need a good blood supply?
Lungs are an important part of the respiratory system in our body and it is because of lungs that we can burn the energy in our bodies. The oxygen and carbon dioxide in lungs is carried in or out of them with the help of blood vessels. This means that the blood vessels carry the oxygen to the body from the lungs and the carbon dioxide do the opposite thing. The red blood cells present in blood carry these respiratory gases and if there is inadequate blood supply to the lungs then the gases will not be absorbed properly. If the absorption of gases is faulty then the body will be deprived of the ability to burn energy, ultimately life.
Which blood vessel does blood oxygen pass through?
Oxygen and other gases pass through the capillaries.
Small sacs in the lungs that exchange gases with blood are what?
Frizzophigus
How your lungs refine oxygen from other gases?
Your lungs refine oxygen from the other gases in air because the gases diffuse through the cell walls in the alveoli in your lungs through osmosis (higher concentration of gases in the air than in the blood, so gases move from the higher concentration to the lower concentration) where they contact the red blood cells. The hemoglobin in the red blood cells binds to the oxygen and leaves all the other gases alone. It moves on from the lungs and delivers the oxygen to the rest of the body. It's the hemoglobin that does the work.
How does osmosis occur in the circulatory system?
Substances may pass through membranes in cells to exchange gases in the alveoli in the lungs or liquid in the nephrons in the kidney. As blood circulates, it encounters such areas and wastes are deposited into the kidneys or air is taken up by the lungs which is passed into the blood.
How can the respiratory system put oxygen into the blood and carbon dioxide out of the blood?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide are both gases, which makes them easier to pass through the cell. In addition, the site of trading the respiratory gases occur at alveoli, which has capillaries attached to it. The membranes in these regions are each one cell thick, which enables the respiratory gases to pass through easier. When the blood reaches the lungs, simple diffusions then take the carbon dioxide out of the cell and oxygenates the blood.
What gas will pass from the blood into the lungs?
carbon dioxide
What process separates the gases you breathe?
When we breathe, the mixture or solution of gases we inspire and expire is altered in the lungs. Oxygen is absorbed by the blood from the air when we inhale, and carbon dioxide passes from the blood into the air in the lungs to be exhaled. The "separation" of gases across the blood-air barrier in the lungs is called gas exchange.
When the right ventricle contracts where is blood push to?
When the right ventricle contracts it is pushes blood to the pulmonary arteries and to the capillaries of the lungs where exchange of gases takes place
