Yes, Oxygen diffuses through the wall of the alveoli then through the walls of the capillaries. :)

What is the body organ which oxygen passes through to capillaries?

The alveoli and capillaries in the lungs pass oxygen to the blood. Both have very thin walls, which allow the oxygen to pass from the alveoli to the blood. The capillaries then connect to larger blood vessels, called veins, which bring the oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.


Oxygen passes into the capillaries that surround these sac?

Oxygen passes into the capillaries that surround the alveoli. The thin walls of the capillaries make this diffusion easier.

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.

Oxygen diffuses into the blood from the?

alveoli in the lungs, where it passes through the thin walls of the capillaries surrounding the alveoli to enter the bloodstream. This process is driven by a concentration gradient, with oxygen moving from an area of high concentration in the alveoli to an area of lower concentration in the blood.


In gas exchange what passes from the blood to the alveoli?

Oxygen


What is the process of oxygen flowing through the alveoli's walls?

The answer is diffusion. The inhaled oxygen passes into the alveoli and then diffuses through the capillaries into the arterial blood. Meanwhile, the waste-rich blood from the veins releases its carbon dioxide into the alveoli. The carbon dioxide follows the same path out of the lungs when you exhale.


What vessels supply oxygen and nutrients to the walls of large blood vessels?

The lymphatic system, although the oxygen comes from the blood itself as it passes through the alveoli


What passes oxygen from the air to the blood?

Oxygen is passed from the air to the blood through the process of diffusion in the alveoli of the lungs. The alveoli are surrounded by tiny blood vessels called capillaries, where oxygen diffuses into the bloodstream and carbon dioxide diffuses out of the bloodstream to be exhaled.


What happens when blood passes by alveoli?

blood take oxygen from blood.
