That would be Carbon monoxide. The blood cells prove that they like Carbon monoxide better by turning even more red.

Carbon monoxide poisoning is often first diagnosed by the person's features being cherry red.

What gas is absorbed in the lungs during respiration?

Absorbed Oxygen...well Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Argon and other stuff...But the gas most wanted is Oxygen and rejected (breathed out) is carbon dioxide.


Where does gas get exchanged in the circulatory system?

In lungs where carbon dioxide is released and oxygen absorbed and in cells where oxygen is given to cells and carbon dioxide is absorbed by blood.


Why oxygen gas is collected over water?

Oxygen gas is collected over water because it is not very soluble in water, so it will not react with or get absorbed by the water. This allows for a pure sample of oxygen gas to be collected.


How erythrocyte are structurally designed to carry oxygen?

Erythrocytes (red blood cells) have 3 main adaptions to carry lots of oxygen: >1) they are a biconcave disk shape. This means that they have a large surface area for the gas to diffuse across. >2) they have lots of heamaglobin- this is the red pigment which combines with oxygen to form oxyheamaglobin, allowing the oxygen to be carried by the cell. >3) they have no nucleus. This means that they have more room to carry the oxygen.


What gas is absobed by the alkaline pyrogallol?

Oxygen gas is absorbed by alkaline pyrogallol. The pyrogallol reacts with oxygen to form a compound called purpurogallin, which causes the solution to turn brown.


What are tiny biconcave disks that carry oxygen called?

Erythrocytes, more commonly known as red blood cells.


The feathery structure of gills aid in the function of gas exchange by?

it increases surface area for gas exchange which means that more oxygen is absorbed.


Is erythrocytes irregularly-shaped cell without nuclei but rich in ATP?

Erythrocytes, or red blood cells, are actually biconcave disc-shaped cells that lack nuclei in their mature form, allowing for maximum surface area to facilitate gas exchange. They are rich in hemoglobin, which is responsible for oxygen transport, rather than ATP. While erythrocytes do produce some ATP through anaerobic metabolism, their primary function is not ATP production but rather the transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the bloodstream.


What is the gases inside the heart?

The heart pumps blood which is a liquid. A certain amount of gas is absorbed by blood (particularly oxygen, which the body needs) but it is not in the form of a gas when the heart pumps it.


What is the name of the protein found in erythrocytes that allows for respiratory gas transport?

Hemoglobin


What enhances gas transportation in an erythrocyte?

Gas transportation in erythrocytes is enhanced primarily by the presence of hemoglobin, a protein that binds oxygen and carbon dioxide. Hemoglobin's high affinity for oxygen allows red blood cells to efficiently pick up O2 in the lungs and release it in tissues. Additionally, the biconcave shape of erythrocytes increases their surface area for gas exchange, while their flexible membrane enables them to navigate through small capillaries effectively. Moreover, the presence of enzymes like carbonic anhydrase facilitates the conversion of carbon dioxide to bicarbonate, aiding in CO2 transport.


What is an axolotl's gas exchanges?

Axolotl breathe using gills. Oxygen is absorbed from the water. Carbon DIoxide is released into water via diffusion.
