What vessels carry oxygen-rich blood throughout the body?
haemo globin carry oxygen to various parts of the body through blood
What are the cells in blood that carry oxygen?
Red blood cells, also known as erythrocytes, are the cells in blood that carry oxygen. They contain hemoglobin, a protein that binds to oxygen molecules in the lungs and releases them to tissues throughout the body.
How does a blood cell carry oxygen?
A blood cell carries oxygen by binding it to hemoglobin, a protein found in the red blood cells. Hemoglobin has a high affinity for oxygen, allowing it to efficiently transport oxygen from the lungs to the tissues throughout the body.
Do arteries transport carbon dioxide in the cells?
Arteries don't always carry blood that is high in oxygen. The term artery is an anatomical term. All blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart are arteries. All blood vessels that carry blood back to the heart are veins. Most arteries do carry blood that's high in oxygen but there is an exception. When the arteries carry blood to the lungs, this blood is low in oxygen. The veins that carry the blood back to the heart from the lungs is high in oxygen. This is called the pulmonary circuit. In this more or less seems backwards. It's best to remember that arteries carry blood away from the heart.
What's the difference between a vein and an artery?
Veins carry blood back to the heart, while arteries carry blood away from the heart. Veins have valves to prevent backflow, while arteries do not. Arteries have thicker walls and carry oxygen-rich blood, while veins have thinner walls and carry oxygen-poor blood.
Do arteries carry oxygen-rich blood to capillaries?
Systemic Arteries carry oxygen rich blood (also called oxygenated blood). Pulmonary Arteries carry oxygen poor (deoxygenated) blood
Is blood in the arteries in rich in oxygen?
By definition, ALL arteries carry Oxygen rich blood. Veins carry oxygen depleted blood.
Where does veins carry oxygen depleted blood to?
Veins carry oxygen depleted blood to the heart.
What kind of blood does vein carry?
Usually veins carry blood low in oxygen back to the heart except for the pulmonary veins. They carry blood higher in oxygen.
Which blood celld carry oxygen?

Does your blood carry food?

How do the blood cells carry food?
blood cells do not carry food, blood cells carry oxygen.
What parts carry blood away from the heart?
Arteries carry Oxygen rich blood away from the heart. While our viens carry Oxygen poor blood back to get filed with more Oxygen
What are the tiny blood vessels that carry oxygen rich blood?
The tiniest blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood are the capillaries. These capillaries form a bed. The arterioles that carry the blood into the bed are high in oxygen. The oxygen is released to the cells. The rest of the bed is low in oxygen and venules carry deoxygenated blood to the veins back to the heart.
What does your blood carry?
Oxygen
Did arteries carry blood low in oxygen?
Arteries carry blood high in oxygen away from the heart to the rest of the body. The blood in arteries is oxygenated, while veins carry blood low in oxygen back to the heart.
What carries hemoglobin in animal's blood cells?
The cells that carry hemoglobin are red blood cells. Their scientific name is erythrocytes.
