Does the carbon dioxide travels into capillaries alveolar and out of the capillaries at the tissue?

In the alveoli


How are oxygen and carbon dioxide exchanged between the alveoli and the capillaries?

Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the capillaries, where it binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells for transport to tissues. Carbon dioxide diffuses from the capillaries into the alveoli and is exhaled from the body.


What are the small sacs in the lungs where carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen?

The humorus


Where are oxygen and carbon dioxide exchanged in the lungs?

oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged in alveoli (singular alveolus).


Does carbon dioxide pass into the blood?

Carbon dioxide passes into the blood at the capillaries of the systemic circulation. Then it is released at capillaries around the alveoli.


How does carbon dioxide get out of your blood?

Diffusion in the capillaries of the alveoli in the lungs.


Where does the diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide occur?

In the lungs, the diffusion of oxygen occurs from the alveoli (air sacs) into the blood capillaries, while the diffusion of carbon dioxide occurs from the blood capillaries into the alveoli for exhalation. This exchange process is facilitated by differences in partial pressures of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the air in the alveoli and the blood in the capillaries.


Does the exchange of carbon dioxide depend on the concentration of oxygen in the alveoli and the blood?

No. It depends on the concentration of carbon dioxide in the alveoli and the blood. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the capillaries of the alveoli is higher than the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air, so carbon dioxide in the capillaries of the alveoli diffuses out of the capillaries into the alveoli of the lungs and is exhaled.


Which substances are exchanged between the blood in the capillaries and the air in the alveoli?

Oxygen is exchanged from the air in the alveoli into the blood in the capillaries, while carbon dioxide is exchanged from the blood in the capillaries into the air in the alveoli during the process of respiration.


Where does the exchange of oxygen carbon dioxide in the blood happen?

The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood occurs in the capillaries surrounding the alveoli in the lungs. Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the blood, while carbon dioxide moves from the blood into the alveoli to be exhaled.


By what process does the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide take place?

capillaries and the alveoli


What takes place between the alveoli and capillaries in the lungs?

When you inhale, air fills the alveoli and oxygen passes from the alveoli through a semipermeable membrane and into the capillaries, leading into the bloodstream. During the same process, carbon dioxide is outgassed from the blood to the alveoli When you inhale, air fills the alveoli and oxygen passes from the alveoli through a semipermeable membrane and into the capillaries, leading into the bloodstream.
