How pulmonary system and systemic system are differ from each other?

The pulmonary system is responsible for exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide between the lungs and blood, while the systemic system delivers oxygen and nutrients to the body's tissues and removes waste products. The pulmonary system deals with gas exchange specifically in the lungs, while the systemic system involves the entire body's circulation of blood.


What system provides gas exchange between blood and air?

The respiratory system provides gas exchange between blood and air. This occurs in the lungs, where oxygen from inhaled air diffuses into the bloodstream while carbon dioxide is removed from the blood and exhaled.


What part of pulmonary circulation is systemic part of the path of blood through the heart is pulmonary?

The systemic circulation is the part of the circulatory system that carries oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body and returns deoxygenated blood back to the heart. In contrast, the pulmonary circulation is the part of the circulatory system that carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs for oxygenation and returns oxygenated blood back to the heart.


Give an example of how the pulmonary and circulatory systems are dependent on each other?

Pulmonary = lungs Circulatory = blood Without oxygen in the blood, there's not much point in having a circulatory system to pump it around, now, is there? And how can a circulatory system function if it has no energy because it has no oxygen? than you!


What is a pulmonary arteriole?

A pulmonary arteriole is a small blood vessel that carries oxygen-poor blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs for oxygenation. These arterioles are part of the pulmonary circulation system that helps exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen in the blood.

What does the pulmonary system do?

Pulmonary system- contains tissues and organs specialized for taking in oxygen and removing carbon dioxide from our bodies and for exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide.


What is the elastic unit of the respiratory system where gas exchange occurs?

Alveoli is where gas exchange occurs.


What are the small sacs at the end of the bronchi-oles where gas exchanged occurs called?

In the pulmonary system, the Alveoli are the small sacs at the end of the bronchioles which are connected to the bronchus. It is within these sacs that gas exchange occurs.


Definition of respiratory system?

a system of organs that exchange gases with the enviroment


What are some organs of the circulatory system?

The components of the circulatory system include the heart, blood, and blood vessels. The pulmonary circulation is also part of this complex system.


What system is a group of organs and tissues that exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide?

Where does gas exhange in the vascular system?

The vascular system, or respiratory system, deals with the exchange of oxygen to carbon dioxide. This exchange occurs in the alveoli sacs


The vital organs of respiratory system?

The vital organs of the respiratory system include the lungs, where gas exchange occurs, and the diaphragm, which helps with breathing by contracting and expanding the chest cavity. Additionally, the trachea carries air from the nose and mouth to the lungs, while the bronchi branch off from the trachea to distribute air within the lungs.


How does the gas exchange system and the circulatory system work together?

it occurs through the heart


Where in your respiratory system does the exchange of O2 happen?

Gaseous exchange occurs in the alveoli (singular = alveolus) of the lungs.


The path of blood flow in the vascular system?

'''Arteries, Arterioles, Capillary beds, Venules, Veins'''


How the circulatory system is linked t the respiratory system?

Basically, they are linked to each other. The circulatory system gets oxygen from the lungs, while the respiratory system gets blood from the circulatory system necessary to feed its cells. The pulmonary circulatory system is part of the cardiovascular system in which oxygen-depleted blood is pumped away from the heart, through the pulmonary artery, to the lungs and returned, oxygenated, to the heart through the pulmonary vein. Oxygen deprived blood from the superior and inferior vena cava, enters the right atrium of the heart and flows through the tricuspid valve (right atrioventricular valve) into the right ventricle, from which it is then pumped through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary artery to the lungs. Gas exchange occurs in the lungs, whereby CO2 is released from the blood, and oxygen is absorbed. The pulmonary vein returns the now oxygen-rich blood to the left atrium.
