since the air in lungs have more oxygen than the blood in the surrounding, the oxygen will be difused to the blood, similerly the quantity of carbon dioxide in the surrounding blood will be more compared to that in the lungs. so again difussion takes place, thus happens the exchange. no osmosis(the exchange of water from a place with a high concentration of water to a place with low concentration of water) but there is diffusion.
What else can I help you with?
What two important gases diffuse across the respiratory membrane?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide are the two important gases that diffuse across the respiratory membrane. Oxygen moves from the alveoli into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide moves from the bloodstream into the alveoli to be exhaled.
What causes oxygen to enter and carbon dioxide to leave the capillaries?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide get into and out of cells via diffusion. The gases diffuse across the thin capillary wall, and then diffuse across the cell membrane.
What molecule is able to easily diffuse across the cell's membrane?
Carbon dioxide, oxygen and some nonpolar molecules diffuse easily.
What organ does the oxygen-carbon Dioxide take place?
Oxygen is brought into the blood, and carbon dioxide released from the blood, at the alveoli of the lungs. Gases diffuse across the alveolar membrane to enter or leave the blood.
Do oxygen and carbon dioxide pass through the walls of the trachea?
No, the trachea is a passageway for air to travel to and from the lungs. Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged in the alveoli of the lungs, where they diffuse across the walls of the alveoli and capillaries.
What two gases diffuse into or out of cells?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse into and out of cells through the cell membrane. Oxygen is required for cellular respiration while carbon dioxide is a waste product that needs to be removed from the cell.
What gas diffuses from the tissues to the blood?
Both oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse from body tissues into the blood.
Which type of blood vessel allows for oxygen and carbon dioxide to exchange?
Capillaries are the thin-walled vessels that allow oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange. Their thin walls make it easy for gases to diffuse across the membranes.
What are the specialized pores that carbon dioxide and oxygen diffuse in and out of?
your mouth and your nose
What gas diffuse from the tissues to the blood?
Both oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse from body tissues into the blood.
How do you resive oxygen and remove carbon dioxide?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide are moved to and from body tissues via the circulatory system. These materials diffuse through the cell membrane, and then diffuse through the capillary wall into or out of the bloodstream.
What are the two things that diffuse from body cells to capillaries?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide
