What else can I help you with?
What does a red blood cell have that enables it to perform its function optimally?
A red blood cell's job is to transport oxygen to lung tissue and get rid of waste such as carbon dioxide. It is adapted to its job as it has no nucleus and no liquids inside it, so there's more space for oxygen to be transported to lung tissue and for waste to be collected.
What are the parts of the body that adapted to aid diffusion?
lung and heart
What is the lung cell cycle?
The lung cell cycle is the process by which lung cells grow and divide to form new cells. This cycle consists of several phases, including interphase (cell growth and DNA replication) and mitosis (cell division). Proper regulation of the lung cell cycle is essential for normal lung function and tissue repair.
What delivers oxygen to your blood?
Oxygen is delivered to your blood through the process of respiration in the lungs. When you breathe, oxygen from the air is absorbed into your bloodstream through tiny blood vessels called capillaries in the lungs. This oxygen-rich blood is then circulated throughout your body to supply oxygen to your tissues and organs.
What is lung neoplasm?
Lung neoplasm refers to an abnormal growth or tumor in the lungs. It can be either benign or malignant (cancerous) and may arise from different cell types within the lung tissue. Symptoms can vary depending on the type and location of the neoplasm, and diagnosis is typically confirmed through imaging studies and biopsies.
The movement of oxygen from the lung into the pulmonary capillaries is by?
diffusion
How is gas exchanged between the lung and the blood?
Yes, oxygen is transferred to the blood via aveolae in the lungs.
How do you get oxygen?
Oxygen is obtained from the atmosphere by a process called Respiration, this involves inhaling air and filling small air sacs in the lung, at which point the oxgen passes into the bloodstream through a process called Diffusion.
What is a human lung cell eukaryote?
collects oxygen
Does the lung bring oxygen into the body?
Yes. The blood passes through the lung tissues and gets oxygen.
What is it called when oxygen moves from the lungs to the bloodstream?
diffusion - the natural movement of particles from high to low density. oxygen dissolves in a film of liquid water lining the alveoli (tiny air sacs in the lungs) and the wall of the alveoli and wall of the capillary (each 1 cell thick) into the blood in the capillary. the oxygen is moving from the high concentration of oxygen in the lung to the low concentration of oxygen in the blood. this low concentration is maintained in the blood since it continuously flows away and is replaced by oxygen poor blood. the high concentration of oxygen in the lungs is of course maintained by breathing in fresh air.
What gases are involved in lung diffusion?
gases 1.oxygen 2.carbon dioxide liquids 1.blood
Changes to the lungs through training?
training changes a lot of thing in the body. the main changes to the lungs are that they grow to be more efficient when aquiring oxygen. this happens both through the structure becoming more flexable and stronger, and the ability to transfer more oxygen into the capilleries(oxygen lung diffusion rate)
How does oxygen enter the mitochondria?
Oxygen in your air is inhaled by our body and then transported to the lung for purification. Again, oxygen is distributed to the different tissue and organs of our body by RBC blood cells. Once oxygen is delivered to a particular tissue, cells barier plasma membrane is permeable to oxygen and allow to diffuse inside cell. Once inside the cell, it crosses the mitochondrial membrane and participate in mitochondrial respiration.
What goes to the lungs then to the cell?
Carbon dioxide, Waste product, goes from the cell to the lungs. So the question is lung to the cell, not positive, but oxygen.
How is oxygen transported from the lungs to the body cell?
The red cells in blood pick up the oxygen molecule from the lung surface cells and take it all over the body through the vascular system and depsoit it where needed
What process moves oxygen from the alveoli to the capillaries?
The process is usually referred to as diffusion. This happens when concentrations in different areas interchange to give a more even mixture. Going through a membrane ( in this case the lung's alveoli wall ) would more properly require the process to be called osmosis, but that term is not usually used medically.
