How is oxygen carried from your lungs into all of your cells for cellular respiration?

1. It slowly diffuses throughout your whole body from your lungs
2. It is carried by your red blood cells through your blood stream
3. Cellular respiration only takes place in the lungs, so you do not need to transport oxygen
4. Oxygen is not necessary for cellular respiration


Sagot :

Answer:

2.  It is carried by your red blood cells through your blood stream.

Explanation:

The oxygen in inhaled air passes across the thin lining of the air sacs and into the blood vessels. This is known as diffusion. The oxygen in the blood is then carried around the body in the bloodstream, reaching every cell.
