How does oxygen in the air get to all the important organs?

Oxygen from the air is inhaled into the lungs, where it diffuses into the bloodstream. The heart then pumps this oxygen-rich blood to all the important organs through a network of blood vessels. The organs extract the oxygen they need for cellular function from the blood.


What part of the blood does oxygen attach to?

Oxygen attaches to hemoglobin molecules in red blood cells in the blood. Hemoglobin is a protein that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues and organs.


Less oxygen in blood more oxygen in blood which organ?

Left side of the heart (left ventricle and atrium) has deoxygenated blood, but after its pumped through the lungs and enters the right side of the heart, the blood is oxygenated. If you divide the circulatory system into 'organs', then veins and venules have less oxygen, while arteries and arterioles have more oxygen. With other organs, there should be indistinguishably equal amounts of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood.


How does oxygen and nutrients and waste passed from the blood into the organs and back?

Oxygen and nutrients are transported in the blood to the organs through small blood vessels called capillaries. These substances diffuse from the bloodstream into the surrounding tissues where they are needed. Waste products produced by the organs are then picked up by the blood and carried away for elimination from the body.


Do the blood transport nutrients and oxygen to organs and body tissues?

Yes, blood transports nutrients and oxygen to organs and tissues throughout the body. Nutrients from the food we eat are absorbed into the blood and carried to cells for energy and growth, while oxygen is picked up in the lungs and delivered to tissues to support their function.

Contrast artery and a vein?

Arteries carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the organs. Veins carry blood back from the organs to the lungs so that it can be refilled with oxygen after it was used by the organs.
