Yes, oxygen generally diffuses into a cell without the cell expending any energy. This process occurs via passive diffusion, where oxygen molecules move from an area of higher concentration outside the cell to an area of lower concentration inside the cell. Since this movement follows the concentration gradient, it does not require ATP or any other form of energy.
What else can I help you with?
Which gas diffuses the oxygen?
In the lungs, oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the bloodstream through the process of gas exchange facilitated by differences in partial pressure.
What is the type of respiration where oxygen rich blood diffuses the oxygen into tissue cells called?
This type of respiration is called internal respiration. In internal respiration, oxygen diffuses from the bloodstream into the cells of tissues, while carbon dioxide diffuses from the cells into the bloodstream.
Why can oxygen diffuses across a cell membrane but Protein can not?
Its too large
Identify a substance that diffuse frutosetake place?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide are substances that diffuse during respiration in living organisms. Oxygen diffuses into cells for cellular respiration, while carbon dioxide diffuses out of cells as a waste product.
What gas diffuses through cell membranes so that respiration can take place?
oxygen
How does ventilation help maintain a difference in oxygen concentration?
As it circulates, the oxygen diffuses into the blood via the alveolar wall, this then transfer the oxygen to the red blood cells, as diffusion occurs at this point, oxygen diffuses from a high concentration to a low concentration, so the oxygen diffuses into the blood whereas the CO2 diffuses into the alveoli and then out of the mouth when we expire.
Oxygen diffuses into the capillaries of the lungs because there is?
It diffuses because the concentration of oxygen in the capillaries is lower than the concentration of oxygen in the air (law of diffusion).
What does oxygen diffuse into?
Oxygen diffuses from any place there is a lot of it to any place where there is less. In the body, it diffuses from the air in the alveoli of the lungs, through the lung and capillary walls and into the blood, where it is taken up by the haemoglobin of the red blood cells. When the bood reaches the body tissues it diffuses out of the blood and into the cells.
Because there is more oxygen in an alveolus than in the blood around it oxygen diffuses?
When there is more oxygen in an alveolus than in the blood around it oxygen diffuses from the capillaries to the veins. This is due to the high concentration of oxygen in the alveoli.
Name the gas that moves in and out of body cells?
Oxygen diffuses into cells. Carbon dioxide diffuses out.
Where oxygen diffuses into red blood cells and carbon dioxide diffuses out?
This process occurs in the capillaries of the lungs. Here, oxygen from inhaled air diffuses into red blood cells in exchange for carbon dioxide, which then diffuses out of the red blood cells and is exhaled from the body.
What substance diffuses from an alveolus into a capillary?
Oxygen.
Which gas diffuses the oxygen?
In the lungs, oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the bloodstream through the process of gas exchange facilitated by differences in partial pressure.
What is the type of respiration where oxygen rich blood diffuses the oxygen into tissue cells called?
This type of respiration is called internal respiration. In internal respiration, oxygen diffuses from the bloodstream into the cells of tissues, while carbon dioxide diffuses from the cells into the bloodstream.
What happens in a hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell?
