Where does oxygen go after it passes through the the cell membrane?
The Mitochondria
Why does every cell in the body need blood?
Every cell is a semi-independent living organism. As such, it needs to eat, excrete, drink, breathe, and reproduce. Food (glucose and proteins), water, and oxygen are brought into each cell through the blood. Waste products and carbon dioxide are carried out, again through the blood. Without these things, the cell, being stuck in place and unable to go out and forage, will die.
What organ converts blood from oxygen-rich to oxygen-poor?
oxygen rich blood gets pumped out of your heart to your arteries which carries the blood to your muscles. then your muscles use the oxygen. oxygen poor blood goes into your veins to go back into your heart. then it goes through a cycle that takes your blood to your lungs, to get oxygen. this process is repeated.
Which poison stops red blood cells carrying oxygen?
The carbon monoxide sticks to the red blood cell in the same way as oxygen. This means the oxygen cant stick to the red blood cell. So carbon monoxide stops the red blood cells from carrying oxygen around the body in the blood stream, Hope this helps.
What will happen if the blood cell is removed from animal body?
First the animal would go into shock, oxygen transport would stop and the animal would die...assuming the question refers to all the red blood cells being removed.
Where does the oxygen go once it is in the blood?
home to its oxeygen cell mum and dad. this question was answered by josh stanton
What vessels drain blood from capillaries?
Arteries feed into capillaries, the capillaries give oxygen and nutrients to every cell in the body and take toxins and CO2 from every cell in the body, from there the blood in the capillaries go into your veins (the blue blood vessels) which go to your heart.
How oxygen enters the cells?
Oxygen is able to go into a cell by diffusion. The oxygen molecules are small enough to go through the cell membrane with that process.
How does an oxygen molecule travel from the nose to a leg muscle?
After entering the nose, oxygen molecules are inhaled into the lungs where they diffuse across the alveoli walls and enter the bloodstream. The oxygen-rich blood is then pumped by the heart to the leg muscles through the arteries. In the capillaries near the leg muscles, oxygen is released from the red blood cells and diffuses into the muscle cells for cellular respiration.
Where does oxygen poor blood go from the heart?
Oxygen-poor blood leaves the heart via the pulmonary artery and is transported to the lungs for oxygenation. Once it picks up oxygen in the lungs, it returns to the heart through the pulmonary vein to be pumped out to the rest of the body.
Where does blood go to get oxygen?
The lungs.
What substance go into the blood?
oxygen
What is the relationship of kidneys and blood Oxygen?
The kidneys monitor oxygen levels in blood and if they are low then the kidneys release erythropoetin in to the blood stream. Red bone marrow cells have erythropoetin receptors and start to produce erythrocyte's in the bone marrow, then they go into the blood stream. This goes on until leaves are back to normal. Since there are more blood cell there is more oxygen carrying capacity.
Why do the activities of one cell affect the entire body?
Because the body is all linked up and every cell in the body needs oxygen to respire etc.. so if one cell is affected it affects the hole body. For example, if a cell in the heart is stopped from having blood which has critical oxygen, then that part of the heart will die and therefore less blood will be able to go to the rest of the body and you will suffer consequences from this.
Where does the blood go to get a refill of oxygen?
Answer by FutureLPGAgolferLungs
Why does the blood have to go to the lungs?
to receive oxygen
How does red blood cells affect animal life?
red blood cells carry oxygen around the body and provide us with the oxygen then say the red blood cell is O the circumference is blood and the empty area in the middle is oxygen they last for i think about 3 months then die then go to the liver and get neutralised and the liver makes another. so red blood cells are critical for life
