The transfer of oxygen to the hemoglobin of the red blood cells is accomplished by alveoli.
From what I recall from high school anatomy, yes. There are little sac-like structures in the lungs called alveoli that are the actual "absorbers". Hope that helps
All the conducting tubes of your lungs will be oxygenated to some degree. The place where the oxygen actually enters the bloodstream is in the tiny end sacs called alveoli.

What provides oxygenated blood to the lung tissue?
Pulmonary circulatory system.
What is the function of the right pulmonary veins?
All veins carry blood to the heart, and pulmonary veins are specifically veins that carry oxygenated blood (oxygenated in the lungs) from the lungs to the heart. In other words, the left pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood from the left lung to the heart, and the right pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood from the right lung to the heart.
Left pulmonary vein function?
transports de oxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs to be oxygenated. On a side note, the pulmory arteries bring back the oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart later to be pumped out of the left ventricle into the Aorta
What is the name of the blood vessel that takes oxygenated blood from the lung to the left atrium?
vena cava
What is blood carried to the heart by?
Unoxygenated blood travels to the heart though the veins to be pumped to your lung capillaries. At you lung capillaries the blood becomes oxygenated and then goes back to the heart to pump oxygenated blood to the rest of your body. the capillaries blood travels though you arteries.
Which blood vessels supply oxygenated systemic blood to the lung tissue?
Pulmonary arteries
What are the names of two veins that bring oxygenated blood from the lungs back to the heart?
The pulmonary veins are found in pairs. Two from each lung. They carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.
What is the lower part of the lung?
Base of the lung
What circulation route takes deoxegenated blood to the lungs where it can pick up oxygen?
Deoxygenated blood leaves the right ventricle through the pulmonary artery and goes to the lung to get oxygenated. The newly oxygenated blood leaves the lung and goes to the left artium through the pulmonary vein. This is called pulmonary circulation.
Which part carry de oxygenated blood?
Veins
Rigt and left pulmonary artery function?
they transport deoxygenated blood from the heart to either the left or right lung where the blood is oxygenated
Where is the apical portion of the lung?
This is the TOP of the lung (part toward the head).
