What else can I help you with?
Is o2 concentration greater in the pulmonary capillaries or alveoli?
In the alveoli
Is oxygen more concentrated in the alveolus or capillary?
In the alveoli
What is the exchange of gases between the alveolar air and pulmonary capilaary blood?
The exchange of gases between the alveolar air and pulmonary capillary blood is called pulmonary gas exchange. Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the capillaries, while carbon dioxide diffuses from the capillaries into the alveoli. This process is essential for the body to obtain oxygen and release carbon dioxide.
Where does oxygen move from the respiratory system to circulatory system?
By diffusion across q capillary wall
What is the site where oxygen enters the pulmonary blood?
Oxygen enters the blood in the alveoli of the lungs
What is the site at which oxygen enters the pulmonary blood?
Oxygen enters the pulmonary blood in the capillaries of the alveoli -- the air sacs of the lungs.
The absorption of oxygen from the atmosphere into the blood takes place in the A. pulmonary artery B. pulmonary vein C. alveoli D. trachea E. bronchi?
alveoli
How can the oxygen you bring into your body get to your circulatory system?
your lungs have structures called alveoli. The alveoli are surrounded by capillary beds which carry blood. The oxygen enters the alveoli when you inhale. The oxygen then diffuses from high concentration in your alveoli to low concentration the blood in the capillaries surrounding the alveoli.
What gas leaves the blood in pulmonary capillaries and enters the alveoli?
carbon dioxide
What is the parts in the lungs where oxygen enters the blood stream?
The capillary net rould the alveoli.
When you inhale air enters the alveoli from the what?
The air flow of the lungs is as follows... From the Nasal cavities to the Pharynx to the Larynx to the Trachea to the Bonchi to the Bronchioles Alveoli ...The respiratory gases, oxygen, and carbon dioxide, diffuse across the Aveolar pulmonary Capillary membrane. Hope this diaphragm answers your question
What happens in pulmonary edema?
Normally very little to no fluid enters the alveoli of the lungs. In pulmonary edema there is increased pressure in the pulmonary veins. So fluid escapes in the alveoli of the lungs, making transfer of the oxygen impossible from such alveoli. Patient feels suffocated and starve for oxygen, in pulmonary edema.
