The pulmonary artery is the blood vessel that leads away from the heart (Artery=Away), toward the lungs. It is pumping blood to that lungs that just returned from the body (via the vena cava, into the right atrium). So the blood in the pulmonary artery has the lowest concentration of O2 and the highest concentration of CO2. It is just about to pick up lots of oxygen, once it gets to the lungs.

Why does your blood need to carry oxegyn and glucose?
Oxygen and glucose are essential for cellular respiration, the process by which cells produce energy. Oxygen is used by cells to break down glucose and generate ATP, the energy currency of the body. Without oxygen and glucose, cells would not be able to generate enough energy to carry out essential functions.
Where does blood give up carbon dioxide and obtain oxgyen?
Blood gives up carbon dioxide and obtains oxygen in the capillaries within the lungs during the process of gas exchange. In the lungs, carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the alveoli to be exhaled, while oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the blood to be carried to the body's tissues.
What is the route that oxygen takes to get to the red blood cells?
If by that you mean where they get their own oxygen, then from nowhere because red blood cells do not need oxygen, they perform all reactions anaerobically.If you mean where they get it to give off for the rest of your body, then its from the lungs.
Which cell allows oxygen to pass through quickly is it thin is it thick?
they have a large surface area to allow a lot of oxgen to difuse acroos. in other words to allow for efficent gas exchange. they also have an excellent blood supply
What are 3 main particles that make up an atom?
i think the carbon oxgen and water :P
What does blood carry to cells?
it carry nutrients,sugar,and oxgen
Does blood carry oxgen and gases?
Yes
What jobs does your blood do for us?
a job is to carry oxgen to your haert where the heart pumps. we need blood becase it carrys oxgen to the haert

What is the blood cell that carries oxgen?
The red blood cells carry oxygen on hemoglobin.
Ateries carry oxgen rich or poor blood?
Arteries carry oxygenated(oxygen rich blood) and veins carry deoxygenated blood. But pulmonary artery carry deoxygenated blood and pulmonary vein carry oxygenated blood.
Do the white blood cells carry oxgen?
White blood cells fight against diseases and infections in the body. They are the first line on defense. Red blood cells carry oxygen within the body.
What is the blood vessel that carries oxgen-rich blood from the lungs to the heart?
The pulmonary veins are high in oxygen and carry blood to the heart. The heart will then pump it to the rest of the body.
What does blood bring to the cells?
blood brings oxgen and nutrients to cells
What blood vessal is oxgen realsed into body cells?
arterial capillaries
Why does your blood need to carry oxegyn and glucose?
Oxygen and glucose are essential for cellular respiration, the process by which cells produce energy. Oxygen is used by cells to break down glucose and generate ATP, the energy currency of the body. Without oxygen and glucose, cells would not be able to generate enough energy to carry out essential functions.
True or false red blood cells carry oxgen to the rest of the body?
True. Red blood cells contain hemoglobin, a protein that binds to oxygen in the lungs and carries it to tissues throughout the body. This process is essential for delivering oxygen for cellular respiration.
