What role does your heart play in delivering oxygen to your body cells

Biology

prisoha [69]4 years ago

The primary function of our heart is pumping the blood throughout our body. The circulatory system plays a crucial role in providing the body with the oxygen needed by cells.  Oxygen gets from the lungs to the body's cells by attaching to hemoglobin in the red blood cells, which are carried around the body in blood vessels along with blood. Oxygen diffuses across capillary cell membranes into cells, where it is taken into the mitochondria and used as a hydrogen acceptor during the production of ATP to produce water.

blagie [28]
In human, Oogenesis in comparison to spermatogenesis is different in that Oogenesis does not complete meiosis until after fertilization, but spermatogenesis is complete before the sperm leave the body. Oogenesis is the process by which the female gametes, or ova are created in the female's ovary. Spermatogenesis is the process in which males synthesis sperms. The two process are part of gametogenesis which involves meiosis type of cell division, in which a diploid cell divides into four haploid daughter cells.

A cell membrane that transports glucose, ions, or other charged or polar molecules is likely to have a higher percentage and gre
erica [24]

Answer: True

Explanation:

<u>A cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer made of polar phosphate head and a nonpolar lipid tail.</u> It is semipermeable and regulates the transport of materials through it. For this,<u> it is selectively permeable</u> and since it is made of lipids, hydrophobic and small polar molecules can diffuse easily through it by simple diffusion and down their concentration gradient. However, polar molecules, large molecules (such as glucose) and ions are not able to pass through it because they are repelled.

To accomplish the transport of these molecules that can not diffuse, proteins embebbed in the membrane function as carriers that enable the transport of polar molecules, large molecules and ions by passive (through facilitated diffusion, down its concentration gradient) or active transport (movement against its concentration gradient).
