Tissues require oxygen for what tissues are composed of. Cells themselves in the tissue use the oxygen in the process cellular respiration to breakdown food molecules such as glucose to provide energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) for all the activities that organism performs both actively and passively.

For cellular respiration, the process by which you are converting the sugars you consumed into simpler energy known as ATP. Without ATP, you cannot live.

Why is your Heart necessary for life?

The heart pumps blood, so that the blood continuously flows throughout the body. Blood contains oxygen, which organs need to survive; if they were deprived of oxygen, they would die. When one's heart stops or they lose a lot of blood, they may die due to the lack of oxygen their organs and tissues need.


Is the job of the circulatory system to bring fresh air to blood?

No. The circulatory system does transport various gasses around the body but the main gas the body needs is Oxygen (and not 'fresh air'). The blood transports breathed in Oxygen from the lungs into the tissues and organs and transports waste gasses such as carbon dioxide from the tissues and organs to the lungs to be expelled when breathing out. The circulatory system's job is transportation of the gasses to and from where they need to go in the body.


Which one of your organs do not need oxygen?

ALL of the the organs in the human body need an oxygen supply. This even includes the organs responsible for delivering oxygen to the rest of the body: the heart and lungs. Every organ requires oxygen. All that can be said in this case is that some organs use/need more oxygen than others. For instance, the brain needs/uses more oxygen than the spleen.


What is the relation among cells tissues and organs?

Cells form tissues, and tissues form organs. And you need them to live.


Why do you need your circulatory system to keep tissues all over your body alive?

as this gives oxygen to your lungs as you need air to breathe!


Hemoglobin servis the body by carrying oxygen to vital organs that need it?

True


How does oxygen get from outside of the body into the body's organs work?

Humans use their respiratory system to inhale air.The air enters the alveoli, millions of tiny sacks in the lungs, that are surrounded in capillaries (tiny vessels that contain blood).The oxygen from the air then diffuses into the capillaries. The blood inside them has now become oxygenated.The tissues and organs of the body receive this oxygen with the circulatory system.The oxygenated blood travels via the pulmonary veins to the heart, where it is pumped through the aorta (a large artery at the top of the heart) towards the body's tissues via arteries and capillaries.Oxygen, water and nutrients reach organs when they diffuse out of the capillaries and become tissue fluid. This process is called pressure filtration.The oxygen in the tissue fluid diffuses into cells. This oxygen is then used by the mitochondria, an organelle which produces ATP (the type of energy that the body gets from oxygen).Oxygen is necessary to survive because the body needs it to produce ATP, an energy that is needed for the body's cells, tissues and organs to function. The energy gained from food isn't sufficient enough to keep humans alive, and this is why we need to respire.


How does differentiate lead to tissues and organs in a developing organisms?

It leads to tissues because they need tissues for a cold during the SUMMER. For organs, IDK.

Why is the hemoglobin needed?

Hemoglobin in the blood is what transports oxygen from the lungs or gills to the rest of the body (i.e. the tissues) where it releases the oxygen for cell use. it alo removes carbon dioxide from the system.


What is is the function of pressure in the body?

Most pressure is need for the body. It is more important than oxygen, nutrients and organs.
