External respiration. On the other hand, if the exchange occurs between the blood and tissues, then it's referred to as internal respiration.

By what process does oxygen diffuse from air into blood?

Oxygen diffuses from air into blood through the process of simple diffusion. This occurs in the lungs where oxygen moves from areas of high concentration in the alveoli to areas of lower concentration in the blood capillaries. The concentration gradient allows oxygen to pass through the alveolar walls and enter the blood.


What cleans marijuanaout of your sstem if your taking a blood test?

There is no guaranteed way to quickly remove marijuana from your system for a blood test. It can typically take a few days to a few weeks for your body to naturally eliminate THC, depending on factors like metabolism and frequency of use. Staying hydrated and exercising may help speed up the process, but the most reliable way to pass a blood test is to abstain from using marijuana.


How can you pass a blood test if you smoke marijuana?

You cant, you have to wait from 20 to 90 days for the marijuana to leave your system, the drug stays in your system for a long time. If you blood test is soon and you have smoked marijuana recently,........your screwed.I hope this answer has been of much use.


Where the blood collects oxygen?

The blood collects oxygen in the lungs through the process of respiration. Hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells, binds to oxygen in the lungs and carries it throughout the body to be delivered to tissues and organs.


Is dialysis osmosis or diffusion?

Dialysis is the separation of particles in a liquid on the basis of differences in their ability to pass through a membrane. As a semi permeable membrane is involved, so it is an osmosis.

What is the process when nutrient molecules pass through the wall of digestive system into your blood?

Absorption.


What is the job of the bronchioles?

The brochiole's function is to allow oxygen to pass into the aveoli (air sacks covered in capillaries) where the oxygen can then enter your blood stream.


What Process in which food molecules pass from the small intestine to the blood?

Absorption is the process


What is the purpose of the aveoli?

The alveoli are the sites of gas exchange in the lungs. They are round and numerous, so the surface area is maximised for increased volumes of oxygen and carbon dioxide to pass through. Their membranes are very thin, and they are surrounded by a network of capillaries to further increase the efficiency of the gas exchange process.


What is the definition of absorption in the digestive tract?

The definition of absorption in the digestive tract is is the process by which nutrient molecules pass through the wall of your digestive system onto your blood


What passes from the air inside the air sac into the blood?

The main purpose of this is to get oxygen into the cells of the body where it can be used in the process of respiration to generate energy from glucose. Other chemicals such as nicotine can also easily pass through the thin walls of these air sacs (aveoli) as can viruses and microorganisms. Hope that helps Diesel 'Danger' Nutkins


By what process does blood pass into the blood?

Oxygen passes into the blood from diffusion in the alveoli of the lungs.If you're asking where blood is made, it's made in bone marrow.


Where does the oxygen pass into the blood in the breathing system?

In the capillaries surrounding the alveoli in the lungs


What are air sacs in the lungs also called?

There should never be "air bubbles" in the lungs. This would be an abnormal finding AND a life and death emergency. An air bubble that travels in the blood stream to the heart, lungs, or brain is an air embolism.IF however you mean the sacs in the lungs that exchange (through the hemoglobin on red blood cells) carbon dioxide for oxygen, those grape-like structures are called aveoli. Aveoli are NOT "air bubbles" though. Numerous small blood vessels cover the outside of each aveoli. The Hgb releases oxygen to the aveoli; the aveoli then pass carbon dioxide back to the Hgb. The Hgb on the red blood cells cannot pick up the O2, until the Hgb lets go of the CO2. Because the aveoli are round and there are many of them, they have high surface area. One breath supplies enough O2 while exhaling the CO2.


What happens when you take out the circulatory system out of your body?

you will die because that system helps blood pass through your body and that system has your heart in it.


Would blood travelling from the brain need to pass through the heart to get to the foot or does it flow straight there?

Blood travelling 'from' any organ is in the venous system and will pass through the heart to be oxygenated, then into the arterial system on the way 'to' any organ.


How are kidneys related to the excretory system?

The kidneys are a part of the excretory system. They filter toxins out of the blood and pass them to the bladder as urine.
