Red blood cells have the responsibility of transporting oxygen throughout the body. About 33% of the weight of a red blood cell is attributed to a specialized protein called hemoglobin. Because of this, red blood cells are often referred to as "bags of hemoglobin."
carbon dioxide
carbon dioxide and water
Carbon dioxide is a by-product of oxidative metabolism whereby sugars are broken down and their carbon molecules are transformed to C02 with the 02 coming from inhaled oxygen. Carbon dioxide leaves the body by diffusing from the tissue into the blood then leaving the body through the lungs.
carbonic acid, carbamino compounds and dissolved gas
Breathing is the physical contraction of muscles such as the internal and external intercostals that draw air into and out of the lungs. Tissue respiration involves the tissues using Oxygen brought to them in the blood and respiring to produce CO2.
Most plants have special structures on their leaves called stomates. Carbon dioxide is drawn into the leaf tissue through these pore-like structures.
Movement of carbon dioxide is driffen by osmosis from and to the tissue and bloodstream. Also active transport can be used. Amount of CO2 present is monitored by means of the pH of your blood as dissolved CO2 is acidic.
In the alveoli
Sugar is converted into carbon dioxide during cellular respiration, which is the metabolic process that generates energy (ATP) for cells. This process occurs in the presence of oxygen and involves a series of chemical reactions that break down sugar molecules to release energy, carbon dioxide, and water.
Most plants have special structures on their leaves called stomates. Carbon dioxide is drawn into the leaf tissue through these pore-like structures.
Respiration is the process in the lungs of absorbing oxygen into tissue while removing carbon dioxide. This is carried out by inhalation and exhalation.
No. Red blood cells do not create a tissue. It transports Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide throughout your body.
