Venous blood is loaded with carbon dioxide and low in oxygen Arterial blood is rich in oxygen with little carbon dioxide
Chemoreceptors detect the levels of carbon dioxide in the blood.
Red blood cells take carbon dioxide (CO2) away from body tissues. The carbon dioxide is then transported to the lungs where it can be exhaled.
blood pH
Depending on the levels of hydrogen ions, carbon dioxide is converted into bicarbonate in the blood
well they take a huge breathe, then hang out under water for a while. Carbon dioxide is what Mammals breathe out after taking in oxygen. hence if they could not hold alot of carbon dioxide... they would probably die.

The length of their dives causes a buildup of carbon dioxide which would be harmful to most other mammals.
Oxygenated blood is red. The presence of carbon dioxide in the blood does not alter the color.
Chemoreceptors detect the levels of carbon dioxide in the blood.
Deoxygenated blood is low in oxygen and high in carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide and water
The lung takes carbon dioxide out of your blood and replaces it with oxygen.
The mechanisms for transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood are the lungs. The blood vessels are also needed for transporting oxygen and dispelling carbon dioxide.
Red blood cells take carbon dioxide (CO2) away from body tissues. The carbon dioxide is then transported to the lungs where it can be exhaled.
No. Your lungs pass oxygen into the blood and also pass carbon dioxide to the air outside your body. Oxygen combines with carbon to form carbon dioxide. This happens in our muscles, among other places.
Lungs and Lungs. Blood that contains carbon dioxide means it is lacking oxygen, and the carbon dioxide was put into the blood as a waste product by all the other organs. The blood then reaches the lungs and exchanges the carbon dioxide for oxygen. The now oxygen-rich blood is transported to the heart where it is pumped throughout the body, and the carbon dioxide is exhaled from the lungs.
