What part of the body carries oxygen?

The air carries oxygen to your body when it is inhaled into your lungs.The blood carries oxygen through you body to the vcells that use it as part of their metabolism.


What is the function of red blood sells?

Red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body's tissues and organs, and for transporting carbon dioxide from the body's tissues back to the lungs to be exhaled. This process is essential for providing oxygen for cellular metabolism and removing waste carbon dioxide from the body.


How does oxygen enter the mitochondria?

Oxygen in your air is inhaled by our body and then transported to the lung for purification. Again, oxygen is distributed to the different tissue and organs of our body by RBC blood cells. Once oxygen is delivered to a particular tissue, cells barier plasma membrane is permeable to oxygen and allow to diffuse inside cell. Once inside the cell, it crosses the mitochondrial membrane and participate in mitochondrial respiration.


What elements make up 90 percent of the human body?

Hydrogen makes up 10% of the human body, Oxygen makes up 65% of the human body, and Carbon makes up 18% of the human body. Hydrogen combines with the Oxygen to create water that is also inside of the human body. -Hope this answers your question.


How does the body decompose inside a casket?

Inside a sealed casket, the body can decompose at a slower rate due to reduced oxygen levels and microbial activity. The process of decomposition still occurs, with the body breaking down through natural processes such as autolysis and putrefaction. The fluids released from the body can mix with chemicals used in embalming, affecting the decomposition process.

Do rusting occur inside human body given that there is presence of ions n oxygen in human body?

No, rusting is a specific type of corrosion that occurs on iron and steel surfaces exposed to oxygen and water. The human body contains various ions and oxygen, but the chemical environment inside the body is tightly regulated to prevent this type of corrosion from occurring. Rusting is not a phenomenon that takes place inside the human body.


What color is your blood before it come out of your body?

It's white inside your body and when it comes out of your body(when it touches oxygen) it turns red. +++ NO! It is always red, although the amount of oxygen being carried affects the shade.


What is the name of chemical inside the cell that oxygen is attached to?

The chemical inside the cell that oxygen is attached to is called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is a protein found in red blood cells that binds to oxygen in the lungs and carries it to tissues throughout the body.

What part of the blood cell caries oxygen?

The hemoglobin molecule inside red blood cells carries oxygen. It binds to oxygen in the lungs and transports it to tissues throughout the body for cellular respiration.


How does the oxygen get from the air to the cell of your body?

from your lungs it is transfered to the heart then pumped through the body


Why is oxygen needed in blood?

Oxygen is needed in blood to be transported to tissues throughout the body and used for cellular respiration, where it is essential in producing energy for the body. Without oxygen, cells would not be able to generate ATP, the energy currency of the body, leading to cellular dysfunction and ultimately, organ failure.


What fluid inside of the human body transports nutrients and oxygen to the cells and carries away from the cell?
