What happens to the Oxygen that is inhaled?
When you inhale, oxygen is absorbed by the lungs and transferred to the bloodstream through the alveoli. From there, it is carried by red blood cells to all the cells in the body where it is used in the process of cellular respiration to produce energy. Carbon dioxide, a waste product of this process, is then transported back to the lungs and exhaled.
How long does it take to die when you inhale helium?
If you just inhaled a bit from a party balloon you would not die, though there have been cases of people becoming unconscious. People have died from trying to inhale helium directly from a helium gas cylinder. They died because the pressure of the gas punctured their lungs and the surrounding blood vessels, and they drowned in their own blood. CPR is no use in this case. This would have happened with any gas, even a cylinder of oxygen. It was the intense pressure that did the damage, not the gas. People died who crawled up inside a helium filled balloon. Helium is not poisonous, but they died from lack of oxygen. Air has a normal load of 21% oxygen, which is enough to keep us living. In that case, they were breathing helium with no oxygen, and they would suffer a sudden and immediate lowering of the oxygen levels in their blood. They would lose consciousness as they were trying to grab a second breath. If they continue to breathe the pure helium they would die in a few minutes from hypoxia (lack of oxygen).
Is a propellant used in aerosol oxygen cans?
Assuming you're talking about the oxygen cylinders a patient would use at home - then no. The Oxygen is simply stored under high pressure in the cylinder, and is released through the step-down valve.
What are disadvantages of oxygen?
Although we breathe Oxygen, inhaling pure Oxygen is harmful to your internal organs. Also, it reacts with almost all metals creating rust. Although cutting off the supply of Oxygen in a fire will extinguish the fire, it also accelerates and supports combustion making it a major hurdle in fire-fighting.
How does the Sun help us live?
The sun gives energy to plants to help them grow, the plants give us Oxygen without the sun we would die. The Plants give us Oxygen and the Sun helps them grow so yea we would die if the sun never existed cause there would be no oxygen if there were no plants.
What does the human exhale and inhale?
Humans inhale oxygen and exhale carbon di oxide.
Humans breathe in oxygen and release what type of gas?
Humans inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide.
How is oxygen made available?
plants and trees inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen. The opposite of humans.
What does humans need to release oxygen to survive?
Humans need to inhale oxygen to survive. Our bodies then use that oxygen to produce energy through a process called cellular respiration, releasing carbon dioxide as a byproduct. The oxygen we inhale is crucial for this energy production process.
How alligators get oxygen?
They inhale air and exhale carbon just like humans.
What is the connection between a equation for photosynthesis and a equation for respiration?
Photosynthesis creates oxygen as a byproduct which we humans then inhale, and exhale carbon dioxide which is what the plants "inhale."
What is the source of oxygen released by plants?
plants inhale carbon dioxide and breath out oxygen. Its the opposite of what humans do, we breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide.
How do plants give oxegyn?
plants take the carbon dioxide that is exhaled by humans and animals and turn it into oxygen. they then release it into the atmosphere. humans and animals inhale the oxygen and the cycle is repeated.
What do you inhale made by plants?
Oxygen is produced by plants through the process of photosynthesis, and it is the primary gas that is inhaled by animals, including humans.
Do animals breath off carbon dioxide?
Animals exhale carbon dioxide and inhale oxygen just as humans do.
When you inhale you breathe in what?
When you inhale you breath in oxygen
Do humans breathe nitrogen as a part of the air they inhale?
No, humans do not breathe in nitrogen as a part of the air they inhale. The air we breathe is mostly made up of oxygen, with a small amount of other gases like nitrogen and carbon dioxide.
