What else can I help you with?
Why purification of blood also referred to as gaseous exchange?
The blood carries both nutrients (food) and wastes to and from cells. At the lungs carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen and at the kidneys blood is filtered and wastes and some water is lost. Most of the water is retained.
Which organ gives oxygen to the blood and takes out the carbon dioxide?
Your lungs, as part of the respiratory system, bring oxygen into your body. Nothing removes carbon dioxide though, it's never in your body per se, the oxygen in your blood cells just gets used when your cells travel through your body, then they go to the lungs which in effect just "recharge" them with oxygen again.
Sponges eliminate carbon dioxide and cellular wastes by?
Sponges eliminate carbon dioxide and cellular wastes through diffusion. As water flows through their pores, oxygen and nutrients are absorbed, while waste products are released into the surrounding water. Sponges do not have specialized organs for excretion, relying instead on passive diffusion.
Where does the exchange of food oxygen and wastes occur?
The exchange of food, oxygen, and wastes occurs in the cell through various cellular processes such as diffusion and active transport. This exchange happens at the cell membrane, where nutrients and oxygen are taken in, and waste products are eliminated to maintain cellular functions and homeostasis.
Which human body system delivers oxygen nutrients and hormones to cells and carries carbon dioxide ammonia and other wastes away from cells?
The circulatory system is responsible for delivering oxygen, nutrients, and hormones to cells through the blood. It also helps eliminate waste products like carbon dioxide and ammonia by transporting them away from cells for excretion.
Do capillaries exchange food and oxygen for wastes and carbon dioxide from the tissues?
Yes, they do. Just as humans do.
Blood vessels in the dermis that carry oxygen and food?
Arteries to arterioles to capillaries where exchange occurs. Oxygen and nutrients are exchanged for carbon dioxide and wastes.
What makes the blood flow continuously throughout the body?
The heart pumps blood throughout the body to exchange nutrients/wastes and oxygen/carbon dioxide.
To get oxygen in your system and wastes out.?
Breathing involves getting oxygen into your system and it expels carbon dioxide, which is a waste.
Which body system Transportsneeded materials to the cellsand carrying the wastes away from cells?
The circulatory system - capillaries exchange oxygen for carbon dioxide, as well as transport materials into and out of the cell.
How do oxygen food nutrients and waste exchange in the capillaries?
Pure diffusion ... everything flows from high concentration toward low. No energy is expended in these exchanges.
In the mammalian fetus where does fetal blood exchenge carbon dioxide for oxygen?
In the mammalian fetus, the exchange of carbon dioxide for oxygen occurs in the placenta. The placenta is a temporary organ that develops during pregnancy to allow for the transfer of gases, nutrients, and wastes between the maternal and fetal bloodstreams. Oxygen from the mother's blood diffuses into the fetal blood, while carbon dioxide from the fetus diffuses into the mother's blood for elimination.
How do carbon dioxide and nitrogen wastes get into you blood?
it wastes
Is a chemical reaction in cells that needs oxygen to release energy and produces carbon dioxide and water as wastes?
Respiration
What are photosynthesis's wastes?
carbon dioxide
What does the circulatory system deliver to the cell?
Circulatory systems deliver food and oxygen to cells and remove carbon dioxide and metabolic wastes.
How odes a fish get oxygen to its cells and get rid of metabolic wastes?
Fish obtain oxygen through their gills, where water flows over thin membranes rich in blood vessels. Oxygen diffuses from the water into the blood, while carbon dioxide, a metabolic waste, diffuses from the blood into the water to be expelled. This efficient gas exchange allows fish to supply their cells with oxygen and remove wastes continuously as they swim.
