The vessels that carry oxygen to the myocardial cells are called coronary arteries. These arteries supply the heart muscle with oxygen-rich blood to support its function.
Coronary arteries carry oxygen-rich blood to the tissues of the heart muscle. The oxygen diffuses within myocardial capillaries.
Red blood cells.
Blood vessels carry oxygen and nutrients to the cells and removes CO2 and waste.
The tiniest blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood are the capillaries. These capillaries form a bed. The arterioles that carry the blood into the bed are high in oxygen. The oxygen is released to the cells. The rest of the bed is low in oxygen and venules carry deoxygenated blood to the veins back to the heart.
Oxygen gets delivered to the body by pumping through the heart and lungs and going on to the capillaries to trade co2 with oxygen. Nutrients get delivered to our body's cells the same way except food is involved.
Usually arteries carry blood rich in oxygen to body cells. However, arteries do not always carry oxygen. The word artery is an anatomical term meaning vessels leaving from the heart.
The vessels that carry oxygenated blood to all cells in the body are called arteries. Arteries are muscular blood vessels that transport oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to the rest of the body.
red blood cells carries oxygen, xylem vessels carries water. both help carry out the process of respiration.
Red blood cells carry oxygen around the body and to the cells.
The primary function of blood is to carry oxygen from the lungs to the cells of the body. It contains a protein called hemoglobin that bonds with the oxygen in an oxygen rich environment like the lungs and that releases oxygen in an oxygen poor environment such as is found where cells are using oxygen. Some oxygen is also in solution in the blood plasma but this contributes little to meeting the oxygen needs of the body.
Increased myocardial contractility increases the oxygen demand for the myocardial cells. If the demand of oxygen exceeds the supply, death of myocardial tissue can occur.
