Change of pace Messi changes his pace really well. He starts slow and runs directly at the defender which means the defender has to stop & focus on him. When he reac...

Transportation in humans - what is it?

Biology - Transportation in Humans Introduction The blood is responsible to transport food, oxygen, and waste materials in human bodies. Blood usually consists of a fluid medium known as  plasma  where the cells remain suspended. Plasma is responsible to transport food, carbon dioxide, and nitrogenous wastes in dissolved form. However, oxygen is carried by the red blood cells. Many other substances such as salts, are also transported by the blood. A Human Heart The heart is one of the most significant muscular organs of a human body. As both the oxygen and the carbon dioxide get transported by the blood; so, to avoid the oxygen-rich blood from mixing with the blood containing carbon dioxide, the heart has different chambers. Oxygen-rich blood from the lungs comes to the thin-walled upper chamber of the heart on the left, i.e. the left atrium (see the image given above). When it is collecting the blood, the left atrium relaxes; however, while the next chamber, i.e. the left ven...
