What cells of your body usually go through which type of respiration?
Most cells in the body perform aerobic respiration, where glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce energy. However, during intense exercise or in the absence of oxygen, some cells can switch to anaerobic respiration, where glucose is broken down without oxygen, leading to the production of lactic acid.
Do prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells need oxygen to live?
Prokaryotic cells can be aerobic (requiring oxygen) or anaerobic (not requiring oxygen), while eukaryotic cells typically require oxygen for aerobic respiration. However, some eukaryotic cells can also perform anaerobic respiration in the absence of oxygen.
Why does our blood need oxygen?
It's not really the blood that needs the oxygen. All the living tissues in our bodies needs a steady supply of oxygen, and the blood is what carries that oxygen around and delivers it where it needs to go.
What types of cells go through photosynthesis?
Plants, algae, and some bacteria are the primary types of cells that go through photosynthesis. These cells contain chlorophyll, a pigment that captures sunlight and helps convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen through a series of chemical reactions.
Why is oxygen important for all body cells?
Cells need oxygen to do a process called respiration.diffusion,and osmosis.The carbohydrates we eat turn into sugar. Your body stores this sugar in your liver until your body is ready to use it. Your pancreas releases insulin to tell your liver, "Release sugar." Then the sugar is carried to a cell. The cell places it in some mitochondria. It gets Oxygen from a red corpuscle. It takes the oxygen to the mitochondria. There it combines the Oxygen and the sugar and materials from the cell to create ATP or Adenosine triphosphate. ATP provides the power to run the cell. It acts like the gasoline in your car. Without gas your car won't go. If your body stops producing ATP, your cells don't go. You can use up all the carbohydrate stored in your liver and most of the fat stored in your body making ATP. Nothing can substitute for Oxygen.To fuel cellular respiration and the production of energy
Why do you have to have oxygen when you go outer space?
Oxygen is needed in our body so we can survive. The cells in our body need it and without oxygen, the cells will die and we will die. When people go in to outer space there is no oxygen so oxygen tanks are taken so the astronauts receive the oxygen they need
How oxygen enters the cells?
Oxygen is able to go into a cell by diffusion. The oxygen molecules are small enough to go through the cell membrane with that process.
What delivers oxygen?
The way that your body cells get food and oxygen is throgh the blood, when you breathe in oxygen goes everywhere in your body and when the oxygen intactas with the cells the cls deliover the oxygen everywhere it needs to go.

How does carbon dioxide get from your body cells into the air around you?
When your blood cells go to your lungs to get oxygen, they also release carbon to make room for the oxygen, then when you breath out, the carbon gets into the air.
What transports oxygen within the blood?
The red blood cells carry the oxygen from the lungs round the body. The heart pumps the red blood cells to go around the body. When the oxygen is given to the cells, the red blood cells return to the heart and get pumped back to the lungs while carrying carbon dioxide.
Does carbon monoxide reduce the amount of oxygen the blood cells carry?
It binds with them the same way oxygen should, but it won't let go. That means that oxygen is no longer capable of binding with the blood cells. That means that although one breathes oxygen, one does not get the oxygen through the body.
Where does the oxygen go in cells when inhaled?
They move into mitochondria. There O2 is used for aerobic respiration
Where does air go when it enters your respiratory system?
All the cells in your body require oxygen
Where does oxygen go after its inhaled?
When oxygen is inhaled, it passes through the nose or mouth, travels down the trachea, enters the lungs, and eventually reaches the alveoli. In the alveoli, oxygen diffuses into the bloodstream, where it binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells. These oxygen-loaded red blood cells then circulate throughout the body, delivering oxygen to cells and tissues for cellular respiration.
Why is it important for red blood cells to have hemoglobin?
Red blood cells carry oxygen, they then take this oxygen to the muscle cells to let the muscles respire, in doing this the muscles cells get more oxygen to work at their full potential. Having more red blood cells may be an advantage in this respect
Do prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells need oxygen to live?
Prokaryotic cells can be aerobic (requiring oxygen) or anaerobic (not requiring oxygen), while eukaryotic cells typically require oxygen for aerobic respiration. However, some eukaryotic cells can also perform anaerobic respiration in the absence of oxygen.
