At the level of the capillaries, oxygen will diffuse out of the saturated red blood cells down their concentration gradient into the tissues where their concentration is lowest.

Which tissue is responsible for transportation in a human body?

Blood - a fluid connective "tissue" - is the primary transport medium of substances, such as oxygen and nutrients, in the body.


How does oxygen leave the body?

Oxygen leaves the body through the process of respiration. During inhalation, oxygen is taken into the lungs and transferred to the bloodstream, where it is then distributed to cells in the body. As cells use oxygen for metabolic processes, carbon dioxide is produced and exchanged back through the bloodstream to the lungs, where it is exhaled out of the body.


Which tissue type in the human body is exposed diectly to the bloodstream?

Endothelial tissue, which lines the inner walls of blood vessels, is directly exposed to the bloodstream in the human body. These cells help regulate blood flow, transport nutrients and oxygen, and facilitate the removal of waste products.


What handles tissue exchange?

In the body, the circulatory system handles tissue exchange by transporting oxygen, nutrients, and waste products to and from cells. This exchange occurs through the blood vessels, where oxygen and nutrients are delivered to tissues, and waste products are carried away.


In what parts of the body are oxygen and CO2 exchanged?

The gaseous exchange of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) occurs within the lungs. Oxygen is inhaled through the mouth and nose, it passes through the bronchi, which branch off into smaller airways called bronchioles. It is at the ends of these bronchioles where the Alveoli are, (tiny, pear shaped sacks).When oxygen enters the Alveoli, it is diffused into the surrounding capillaries (which are one cell thick). It is also in the alveoli where carbon dioxide is exchanged, the carbon dioxide is removed from the blood plasma in the surrounding capillaries, where it begins it's process of expiration (breathing out).I'm an A level student, and have just finished doing Anatomy and Physiology exam for Health and Social Care

Where is oxygen taken into the body?

Oxygen is taken into the body through the respiratory system when we breathe in air into our lungs. The respiratory system includes the nose, mouth, trachea, bronchi, and lungs, where the oxygen is absorbed into the bloodstream and carried to all the cells in the body.

How does oxygen diffuse through the body?

Diffusion occurs throughout the human body, and without it, cells and body tissue, dirty atmosphere, oxygen concentration may be low, and the eye can dry out.
