In the alveolar/capillary level in the lungs and in the cellular/capillary level in the other parts of the body. The cells take in oxygen from the arteries/capillaries and give out carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide goes in veins, which take the de-oxygenated blood back to the heart, and after, it goes into the lungs, to be oxygenated again in the alveoli by oxygen that is breathed in. That goes into the heart, and the heart pumps it into the body, to be used up.

Deoxygenated blood travels away from the heart and toward the where it becomes oxygenated.?

Deoxygenated blood travels away from the heart to the lungs, where it picks up oxygen and becomes oxygenated.


Is the blood of the systemic circulation system oxygenated or deoxygenated?

The blood in the systemic circulation system is oxygenated. It carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body's tissues and organs.


What is the definition of deoxygenated blood?

Deoxygenated blood is blood that has low levels of oxygen and high levels of carbon dioxide. It is typically darker in color compared to oxygenated blood. Deoxygenated blood circulates through the body to deliver carbon dioxide to the lungs for removal.


Does the right atrium in the body contain oxygenated or dexoygenated blood?

The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood, then the blood moves into the right ventricle. So both of them receive deoxygenated blood. Once the blood returns from the lungs it is oxygenated and comes into the heart through the pulmonary veins into the left atrium then to the left ventricle then out to the body.


What is the process in which deoxygenated blood comes to the lungs to get oxygen?

Deoxygenated blood comes to the lungs to be reoxygenated in the respiratory process. This involves both blood flow and the circulation of oxygen from it's separation from room air into base gas components in the lungs. The perfusion process is also another name for it, but this is a little general. The blood itself circulates to the lungs via the pulmonary artery (the only artery to carry deoxygenated blood) to the lungs where the spent oxygen is exchanged as carbon dioxide for new oxygen molecules via the perfusion process and is then returned to the heart via the pulmonary vein(the only vein to carry oxygenated blood).

What structure in the heart separate oxygenated blood from deoxygenated blood?

The structure in the heart that separates oxygenated blood from deoxygenated blood is the atria. These are the two sides of the heart and are separated by the interatrial septum.


Do veins carry oxygenated blood or deoxygenated blood?

Deoxygenated With the exception of the pulmonary vessels, veins carry deoxygenated blood; arteries carry oxygenated blood.


Is an atrium deoxygenated or oxygenated?

Both. The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the veins of the body; the left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the pulmonary vein.


Can you find oxygenated blood in venules?

The blood in venules of the systemic circulation is deoxygenated. The blood in pulmonary venules is oxygenated.
