What takes oxygen into the blood?
Oxygen enters your blood stream in your lungs. Inside your lungs the air pipe branches into smaller pipes which branch a number of times eventually forming 'alveoli'. The great amount of braching increases the surface area so there is more area for oxygen excahnge to occur, making the process more efficient. In the alveoli the capillaries are very close to the surface, so close that the oxygen gas can move across the thin wall into the blood stream. This is facilitated by haemoglobin which attracts and bonds with oxygen molecules.
Whic body system supplies nutrients and oxygen to the cells?
The circulatory system is responsible for supplying nutrients and oxygen to the cells. It does this by transporting blood, which carries these essential substances, throughout the body. Blood is pumped by the heart and circulated through blood vessels to deliver oxygen and nutrients to cells and tissues.
Why does oxygen enter the blood stream?
Oxygen enters the bloodstream through the lungs during the process of respiration. In the lungs, oxygen diffuses from the air sacs (alveoli) into the pulmonary capillaries, where it binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells. This oxygenated blood is then pumped to the rest of the body by the heart to deliver oxygen to tissues for cellular respiration.
When oxygen enters the body it is carried to the cells by the?
When oxygen enters the body, it is carried to the cells by red blood cells. These red blood cells contain hemoglobin, a protein that binds to oxygen in the lungs and transports it to tissues throughout the body. Once oxygen-rich blood reaches the cells, it is able to participate in cellular respiration to produce energy.
How do oxygen molecules get around the body?
The oxygen molecule is inhaled (breathed in) through the left nostril or the mouth and then goes down the trachea (windpipe) and into the bronchioles and into the alveoli (both are parts of the lung). Then the blood meets up with the oxygen molecules and turns it into oxygenated blood. This blood is fed into the blood stream and go down the arteries, then capillaries, then into the muscle where they help it work. The blood is deoxygenated and then the blood goes to the heart to be pumped round the body again and the oxygen is taken up the same way it came down and is exhaled. I hope this helped :)
What oxygen in the blood stream flows into the cells?
blood
How does oxygen enter the stream?
Oxygen enters the blood stream through the air sacs in you lungs.
where does oxygen enter the stream?
In air breathing animals, oxygen enters the blood stream through the alveoli, tiny sacs in the lungs. In water breathing animals oxygen enters the blood stream through the gills.
Were does oxygen enter the blood stream?
dosent
The gas that goes into the blood stream through the blood is?
Oxygen is brought into the blood stream by inhalation. Carbon dioxide moves out of the cells, into the blood, and taken to the lungs to be exhaled. Oxygen in, carbon dioxide out.
What transports oxygen in the circulatory system?
Blood carries and transfers oxygen and nutrients throughout the body.
What animal contains oxygen in there blood stream?
monkeys
Which protein transfers oxygen into the blood?
Hemoglobin is the protein responsible for transferring oxygen into the blood. It is found in red blood cells and binds to oxygen in the lungs, then releases it to tissues throughout the body.
What transports oxygen in the body?
Blood cells carry the oxygen through the blood stream to the other cells in the body.
Where is oxygen found in living things?
The Lungs, Blood Stream.
What does oxygen in the blood stream carried to?
all parts of the body
Who supplies oxygen to all parts of your body?
The blood stream.
