∙ 13y agoDiffusion transport is responsible for oxygen entering blood cells because when the oxygen concentration in the alveoli in the lungs are too high it diffuses with the red blood cells by giving it oxygen and receiving carbon dioxide.

Diffusion. Oxygen diffuses across the respiratory membrane of the alveoli in the lungs. This is all part of pulmonary circulation when the heart pumps oxygen defficient blood into the lungs where the same amount of carbon dioxide diffuses out of the blood as oxygen diffuses into the blood. Therefore, the oxygen rich blood travels back into the heart and is pumped throughout the body during systemic circulation.

What type of transport is responsible for oxygen entering into blood cell?
the answer to apex is passive.
What transports oxygen to cells in body?
ways of transporting oxygen (presumably in the human body you are referring to) it is carried in the blood as part of the circulatory system-it is picked up from the lungs through alveoli -majorly carried in the blood as oxyhaemoglobin (oxygen combined with haemoglobin in red blood cells) -some can be dissolved in the blood plasma
What is principally responsible for the carriage of oxygen in the blood and what effect does the reaction with oxygen have on its appearance?
Haemoglobin! Carriage of oxygen by red blood cells. Appearence of oxygenated blood-bright red.
What is responsible for picking up the oxygen in lungs and carrying it to all the body cell that need it?
The red blood cells in the blood are responsible for picking up the oxygen in the lungs.
What is the function of red blood sells?
The main function of red blood cells is to transport oxygen around in the body. The oxygen is transported by the hemoglobin (a protein) which is inside the red blood cells.
Which type of transport is responsible for oxygen entering into blood cells?
Passive
What type of transport is responsible for oxygen entering into blood cell?

What is responsible for the RBC's ability to transport oxygen and CO2?
It is an iron-based protein called hemoglobin.
Which protein present in red blood cells is responsible for the transport of oxygen?
Hemoglobin is the protein that carries oxygen found in red blood cells.
What responsible for the transport of oxygen the body tissues and removal of carbon dioxide?
red blood cells
What are the blood cells that transport oxygen?
red blood cells transport oxygen :)
What cells are responsible for carrying oxygen and nutrients to body cells?
The cells that transport oxygen throughout the body are red blood cells.Red blood cells contain a pigment called haemoglobin which the oxygen molecules bind to, forming oxyhaemoglobin. When the cells reach the target body tissues, this binding is reversed and the oxygen is released.
What does blood transport?
blood transport oxygen around the body
How does blood entering the lungs differ from blood leaving the lungs?
The blood leaving the lungs is loaded with oxygen, while blood entering the lungs is about to get oxygen from the respiratory system.
How does the blood entering the heart from the lung differ from the blood entering the heart from the blood?
The blood entering from the lungs has a high oxygen content and the blood entering from the body is high in carbon dioxide.
Which blood component is responsible for oxygen exchange?
Red blood cells are responsible for oxygen exchange
Do red blood cells prevent pathogens from entering the human body?
No, red blood cells simply transport oxygen to tissues. The role of providing immunity to the body is played by white blood cells.
