Where in the body does blood lose oxygen as it passes?
The blood losses O2 in the capillary beds that supply every cell in the body (exept the gas exchange cells in the lungs)
Which structure does gas exchange occur?
Initially within the alveoli inside the lungs; also between the body's tissue cells and blood
What three ways does blood serve the body?
1. Gas Exchange... carrying oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body, as well as carrying carbon dioxide from the body back to the lungs. 2. Pathway for transportation.... Carries hormones from the endocrine system so that they can act on their target cells. Carries nutrients to the cells of the body. Carries waste away from the cells of the body to be filtered by the liver and/or kidney. 3. Part of the immune system... Contains white blood cells and antibodies.
What is the name of an atmospheric gas expelled by body cells?
carbon dioxide.
Why is the circulatory system considered the transportation system?
The circulatory acts as a transportation system because the hemoglobin on red blood cells transports the gas carbon dioxide back to the heart and lungs for exchange, then picks up oxygen to transport it back to the cells. Fluid waste is carried in part by blood to the kidneys. Also white blood cells and macrophages zoom to areas of infection to clear the body of germs.
Which gas passes from the body's cells into the blood?
carbon dioxide
Which gas passes from the blood into the body cells?
carbon dioxide
Where in the body does blood lose oxygen as it passes?
The blood losses O2 in the capillary beds that supply every cell in the body (exept the gas exchange cells in the lungs)
Which gas passes out of the blood into the body's cell?
oxygen
What gas is carried to the cells of your body?
The blood carries oxygen to all the cells of the body.
How do red blood cells carry gas arround the body?
In gas cans.
What is a gas that usually passes into cells?
Oxygen is the gas that usually passes into cells. It moves by diffusion from the bloodstream.
Which gas does blood carry to cells of the body?
Oxygen (O2)
It carries food and gas for the body cells?
blood oxygen meter
The gas exchange between the blood and the cells of the body is an example of?
Diffusion
The most important gas distributed to all cells of the body by blood is?
Oxygen! Remember it isn't the only gas. CO2 is also removed from cells in the body.
What are the two most important things the blood carries to the body cells and the waste gas that blood carries away from these cells?
blood mainly carries oxygen and nutients (end products of digestion) to the body cells. the waste gas that blood carries away from the cell is called Carbon dioxide
