Why is the renal vein low in oxygen?

The renal vein is low in oxygen because it carries blood that has already been filtered by the kidneys. As the blood flows through the kidneys, waste products are removed and nutrients are reabsorbed, which depletes the oxygen content of the blood.


What two waste substances the coronary vein remove?

The coronary veins primarily remove carbon dioxide and metabolic waste products, such as lactic acid, from the heart muscle. These substances are byproducts of cellular respiration and energy metabolism in the cardiac tissue. By transporting these waste products away, the coronary veins help maintain the heart's overall health and function.


Does the renal artery contain higher levels of glucose than then renal vein?

No, the renal artery carries blood with higher levels of oxygen and nutrients to the kidneys, while the renal vein carries blood with waste products, including urea and carbon dioxide, away from the kidneys. Glucose is typically reabsorbed in the renal tubules, so the levels of glucose are lower in the renal vein compared to the renal artery.


What occurs when carbon monoxide enters the lungs?

When air is inspired, it goes into the lungs, spreads across the alveoli which are like air sacs, and increases the oxygen content in the blood (through capillaries) with the help of hemoglobin. At the same time, carbon dioxide is being transferred into the alveoli by the capillaries used to transfer blood. The oxygen rich blood is sent through the pulmonary vein into the right side of the heart where it is transferred to the rest of the body. Meanwhile, the carbon dioxide that had been collected by the air sacs in the lungs is expired.


What is the function of the secondary vein of a leaf?

Secondary Functions r 1, manufacture of food and water eg. scale leaves of onion 2,leaves produce buds on them and can be used for vegetation propagation. Primary functions r 1,manufacture of food materials by chlorophyll in the presence of sunlight ,carbon dioxide and water 2,iterchange of gases [carbon dioxide and oxygen]between the the atmosphere and the plant.

Does the left ventricole have more oxygen or more carbon dioxide?

The left ventricle receives oxygenated blood from the lungs via the pulmonary vein and pumps it out to the body. Therefore, the left ventricle has more oxygen and less carbon dioxide.

Which vessel carries blood with the least carbon dioxide?

By definition arteries always carry blood away from the heart and veins carry it to the heart.Most arteries carry blood with the least amount of carbon dioxide. But there is an exception. The arteries that carry blood to the lungs is very high in carbon dioxide.
