Why is oxygen not exchanged directly through the body surface in humans?
Humans are designed to use lungs for efficient oxygen transfer. The body surface (called skin or the epidermis) is designed more to keep harmful things out than to let oxygen in.
What is the final acceptor of electrons and hydrogens in the electron transport chain?
oxygen
What is the mineral needed for the transport of oxygen in the blood is?
iron
Is oxygen is harmful for human?
No humans depend on Oxygen to survive
What living things use oxygen?
Humans and animals use oxygen to breathe. Plants exhale oxygen.
Which organ system in humans is most directly involved in transport of oxygen?

Which organ system in humans is mostly directly involved in the transport of oxygen?
the respiratory system, which contains the (THIS IS NOT IN ORDER) nasal cavity, mouth, throat, epiglottis, larynx, pharynx, voice box, esophagus, lungs, and the parts inside your lungs.
Which component of mammalian blood is most directly involved in the transport of oxygen?

Which of the following metabolic processes directly requires oxygen?
Electron transport system
Which type of blood cell is directly involved in clotting and which type functions in carrying oxygen?
Platelets are involved in clotting, and red blood cells carry oxygen.
Which statement concerning gas transport in humans is correct?
Oxygen is transported to body cells in the form of oxyhemoglobin.
The oxygen consumed during cellular respiration is involved in what process?
Oxygen consumed during cellular respiration is involved in the electron transport chain; it is the final electron acceptor (this is also what makes it either aerobic or anaerobic respiration).
Why is oxygen not exchanged directly through the body surface in humans?

Why cant humans respire gases other than oxygen?
Oxygen is a gas. In addition, gases other than oxygen are involved in the respiration process - such as carbon dioxide or nitrogen.
What is directly related to hemoglobin?
As far as the obvious: Red Blood Cells, Oxygen, and Iron. Hemogloblin is Iron Based, and is used in Red Blood Cells to Bind Oxygen for transport.
