What else can I help you with?
Inhaled oxygen diffuses through the walls of what?
Inhaled oxygen will diffuse through the walls of the lungs. It will also diffuse through the walls of red blood cells so it can be carried all over the body.
What is reaction that can be reduced due to lung damage?
Many things can be slowed down and otherwise adversely affected by lung damage. The lungs' most important function, breathing, is certainly one of these things that is affected when the lungs are damaged.
What happens when the arteries to the brain are blocked?
The brain requires oxygen to generate the energy it needs to operate. Blood provides the necessary oxygen transport. Blocking the arteries would starve the brain of oxygen and the brain would rapidly start shutting down. Starve it of oxygen long enough (about one minute) and cells stop functioning properly and even start dying, escalating rapidly to whole brain death. This is not a healthy thing to do. Do not try this at home.
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.
Is oxygen inhaled?
yes!
What level inhaled oxygen?
21% of the air we inhale is oxygen
What is the concentration of oxygen in inhaled air?
Exhaled air contains 16% oxygen and 21% when inhaled.
Percentage of oxygen in inhaled air?
About 21%
What percentage of inhaled air is oxygen?
About 21%.
What is added to the blood after its been inhaled?
oxygen:)
What is the name of the gas you inhaled?
air, which is a mix of several gasses
What happens when blood meets the surface of the lungs?
the blood gets renewed..ithink OR it gets rid of the carbon dioxide and takes up the inhaled oxygen.
Which is the main gas humans exhale?
Carbon dioxide (CO2). It is exchanged with Oxygen (O), which is inhaled. This exchange is called the Gas Exchange and it happens in the Aveolus.
What happens if anthrax is inhaled?
You die.
What happens when water is inhaled?
When water is inhaled, it can go into the lungs and interfere with the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. This can lead to difficulty breathing, coughing, and in severe cases, aspiration pneumonia or drowning. It is important to seek medical attention if water inhalation occurs.
Inhaled oxygen diffuses through the walls of the?
cells
