Where does oxygen enter the body?
Through your MOUTH and your NOSE.
Why might it be beneficial for your heart to beat more quickly during the fight or flight response?
adrenaline is released into the bloodstream
Oxygen began to enter the atmosphere of the early Earth as a result of?

Who is at risk for infective endocarditis?
people who have had rheumatic fever, with its resulting scarring, or a congenital cause of heart malformation, may contract this disease when certain bacteria enter the bloodstream and become lodged in the heart.
How does an earthworm obtain its oxygen?
Since they don't have a nose or lungs, they take in oxygen through their skin.
Does oxygen enter the bloodstream through the lungs the heart or the ventricles?
Lungs
Where in a mammal's body does oxygen enter the bloodstream?
Blood picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide in the lungs.
Where in a mammals's body does oxygen enter the bloodstream?
Blood picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide in the lungs.
Where in a mammal's body does the oxygen enter the bloodstream?
Oxygen enters the bloodstream through the alveoli in the lungs. When you breathe, oxygen from the air diffuses across the thin walls of the alveoli into the surrounding capillaries, where it binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells for transport throughout the body.
How does oxygen enter the cells of the tube worm?
Oxygen enters the cells of tube worms primarily through their gills, which are adapted for gas exchange. These gills are often richly vascularized, allowing oxygen to diffuse from the surrounding water into the bloodstream. The hemoglobin in their blood then binds to the oxygen, transporting it to the cells throughout the worm's body for cellular respiration. Additionally, some tube worms can utilize symbiotic bacteria that produce energy from hydrogen sulfide, allowing them to thrive in oxygen-poor environments.
Why doesn't an embryo suffocate in the womb?
An embryo receives oxygen and nutrients from the mother's bloodstream through the placenta. The exchange of gases happens through the umbilical cord, which allows oxygen to enter the embryo's bloodstream and carbon dioxide to exit, preventing suffocation.
HOW DOES THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM WORK?
The respiratory system is responsible for gas exchange, allowing oxygen to enter the bloodstream and carbon dioxide to be expelled.
What part of the body do you breathe in?
You breathe in through your nostrils or mouth, which allows air to enter your respiratory system and reach your lungs where oxygen is absorbed into the bloodstream.
Can your bloodstream store oxygen?
Your bloodstream can't store oxygen for an extended period; it just transports it from the lungs to where it is needed.
Do worms require oxygen to survive?
Yes, worms require oxygen to survive. They breathe through their skin, absorbing oxygen from the air and water around them. Without enough oxygen, worms can suffocate and die.
How long does it take for sugar to enter the bloodstream after consumption?
After consuming sugar, it typically takes about 15-30 minutes for it to enter the bloodstream.
Which way does oxygen diffuse when the concentrationof oxygen in the alveolus is higher than theblood capilliary?
Oxygen diffuses from the alveolus into the blood capillary due to the concentration gradient - from high to low concentration. This process allows oxygen to enter the bloodstream and be transported to the body's tissues for utilization.
