What else can I help you with?
Which organ takes in oxygen?
The lungs absorbs oxygen into the blood
Where is oxygen picked up in your body?
Oxygen is picked up in the lungs when you inhale air. The oxygen is then transported from the lungs to the rest of the body by red blood cells in the circulatory system.
How long does carbon dioxide stay in the blood stream?
Carbon dioxide typically remains in the bloodstream for a few minutes before it is exchanged for oxygen in the lungs. It is transported in the blood as bicarbonate ions, which help maintain the body's pH balance. Once the blood reaches the lungs, carbon dioxide is exhaled, allowing for fresh oxygen to be taken in.
What organs supply blood with oxygen in mammals?
the lungs supply the blood with oxygen, within the lungs there are alveoli which have a very thin membrane which allows oxygen to pass into the capillaries that run into the lungs hope i helped
What happens to the oxygen when it reaches the blood?
As blood passes through lungs, there is exchange of oxygen and carbon bi oxide, from high concentration to low concentration and oxygen enters the blood from air to blood to make it oxygen rich.
What happens to the oxygen when it reaches the alveoli?
When oxygen reaches the alveoli in the lungs, it diffuses from the air in the alveoli into the surrounding capillaries. The oxygen then binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells, which transports it to the body's tissues for use in cellular respiration.
What happens when fresh air containing oxygen reaches the lungs?
The red blood cells pick it up from the air and take it through the blood stream to the cells in the body.
What happens after the blood reaches the lungs and the lungs get rid of the excess wastes?
you breathe out xx
When you breath in what happens to your lungs?
When you inhale, you breath in oxygen and your lungs get bigger.
What happens to the blood when it reaches the lungs?
The blood is oxygenated that is oxygen which has been inhaled is added to the blood and the blood then transports it to other body parts.
What happens to the oxygen when it reaches the cells?
it is used in metabolic process
How lungs get oxygen?
Oxygen enters the lungs when we inhale air. It travels down the airways and reaches the alveoli, tiny air sacs in the lungs where gas exchange occurs. Oxygen from the air diffuses into the bloodstream through the alveolar walls and is then carried to the rest of the body.
What happens to the oxygen levels in the blood as it moves through the lungs?
the oxygen releases carbon dioxide
What happens to each of these gases in the lungs?
Two main gases exchange in the lungs: oxygen and carbon dioxide.
What happens when the blood reaches tissues or cells that do not have enough oxygen?
The oxyhaemoglobin will break down and oxygen will release. :)
What location in the body is carbon and oxygen exchanged?
This process happens in the lungs.
Why does blood change color at the lungs?
Blood changes color at the lungs because it unloads carbon dioxide and absorbs oxygen. Red blood cells that are carrying oxygen are a brighter red color than red blood cells that are depleted of oxygen.
