What else can I help you with?
How are the lungs and the capillaries connected?
The lungs contain air sacs called alveoli which are surrounded by blood capillaries to allow gaseous exchange.
What are the components of the respiratory system?
Human respiratory system contain wind pipe or trachea, bronchus, bronchi, alveoli with blood capillaries. Lungs have air sacs or alveoli which are surrounded by capillaries which oxygenate, de-oxygenated blood.
What is the substance that the capillaries absorb from the lungs?
The capillaries absorb oxygen at the lungs. This occurs near the alveoli.
O2 enters the capillaries and ----- from the capillaries passes in to the lungs?
Carbon dioxide is produced as a waste product of respiration, and is taken in the bloodstream to the capillaries outside the lungs, where the CO2 diffuses into the alveoli of the lungs.
Oxygen diffuses into the capillaries of the lungs because there is a?
greater concentration of oxygen in the air sacs of the lungs than in the capillaries.
Movement of blood throughout the body?
Heart - arteries - capillaries - veins - heart - lungs - back to the beginning. (All the blood every minute [at rest].) pulmonary circulation
Capillaries are to body tissues as are to lungs?
oxygen
Oxygen diffuses into the capillaries of the lungs because there is?
It diffuses because the concentration of oxygen in the capillaries is lower than the concentration of oxygen in the air (law of diffusion).
In each of the two lungs' the bronchi diviinto smaller branches which contain millions of tiny air sacs called?
Alveoli
What process is used to move oxygen into the capillaries of the lungs?
The process used to move oxygen into the capillaries of the lungs is called diffusion. Oxygen in the alveoli of the lungs moves across the thin walls of the alveoli and the capillaries by diffusion, from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, facilitated by the pressure difference between the alveoli and the blood in the capillaries.
How does marijuana get inside you?
It enters through the capillaries of the lungs.
What passes from the capillaries into the lungs?
Carbon dioxide is exhaled
