Oxygenated blood is blood that has been supplied with oxygen by the lungs. It has a high concentration of oxygen.
Deoxygenated blood is blood that has been delivered to the living cells of the body, and has had its oxygen supply depleted. Deoxygenated blood has a high carbon dioxide concentration.
Oxygenated blood forms by being pumped by the heart to the lungs, where external respiration occurs, supplying the blood cells with much needed oxygen. Deoxygenated blood forms when the oxygen from the blood cells moves into the interstitial fluid around other cells of the body.
Neither of them are harmful, and both are good for health, provided that cellular respiration occurs, allowing the exchange of respiratory gases between the cells. If cellular respiration did not occur, we would die of carbon dioxide poisoning.
I suppose that you could consider deoxygenated blood harmful for that reason...but, as I said, it is not harmful unless the other factors are not present.

Oxygenated blood is the blood that goes from the lungs to the heart to be pumped to the the various orans of the body through the arteries . since the redblood carpuscles are the carriesrs of the oxygen , the blood is loaded with oxygen from the air we inhale while breathing . since every cell of our body needs oxygen it is tken to the cells of allorgans by the blood 9 red blood carpuscles .deoxygenated blood is the blood that returs through the veins to the lungs carrying the carbondioxide collected from the cells after unloading the oxygen to the cells of the body . This blood id taken to the lungs to be purified by unloading the carbon di oxide to be exhaled from the lungs and loading the oxygen absorbed from the air that we inhale , to be taken to the cells again . Thus the same blood supplies the cells with oxygen for burning energy and clears the carbon dioxide created by burning energy in the cells . The oxygenated blood is he life-giving blood and is therefore good for health .

In addition to other info, blood is oxygenated while it passes through the lungs and de-oxygenated throughout the body when cells use up the oxygen. Oxygenated blood is pumped out of the heart through arteries, and de-oxygenated blood flows back toward the lungs in veins. Oxygenated blood is necessary for life, de-oxygenated blood isn't bad or good - it's just the way our body uses oxygen.

No, it doesn't work that way.
Phase 1. Blood goes from the heart to the lungs, where it picks up oxygen, and gives up carbon dioxide. It then goes back to the heart to be pumped around the body. This is oxygenated blood.
Phase 2. the blood travels around the body, giving up oxygen to cells that need it, and picking up carbon dioxide. this bllod is becoming de-oxygenated. It eventually returns to the heart to start all over again on Phase 1.

Hemoglobin is what makes the red blood cells red. Hemoglobin combines chemically with oxygen in the lungs to form oxyhemoglobin. This is oxygenated blood which we need to carry oxygen to our cells. At the cells, from the capillaries, the oxygen comes off and now the blood is deoxygenated. Carbon monoxide can also chemically combine with the hemoglobin to form carboxyhemoglobin which does not come apart easily and binds up the hemoglobin needed to carry the oxygen to the cells.

One thing you should realize is that not much oxygen dissolves in water or in blood). Humans have special "carrier molecules" for oxygen in their blood. The carrier in humans is hemoglobin. Generally, cells use oxygen to make energy (ATP) for their normal processes, and produce carbon dioxide as a waste product. If too much carbon dioxide accumulates, the blood can become acidic, which interferes with many enzymes, etc.

oxygenated blood is blood that carry oxygen to ur body while deoxygenated blood is blood which carry carbon dioxide inside it and need to expel from body oxygenated blood form when oxygen combine with haemoglobin of red blood cells to form oxygenated blood and deoxygenated blood form when it carry out carbon dioxide deoxygenated blood is harm if it keep store inside our body because it contain carbon dioxide both of these blood does not influence your health but oxygenated blood is important in our body as it our main supply of oxygen

Oxygenated blood is that which has oxygen and de-oxygenated blood contain carbon di oxide.Oxygenated blood after supplying oxygen collects carbon di oxide and it becomes deoxygenated blood.to be healthy oxygenated blood is preferred.

the heart is divided into 4 parts, the left atrium and ventricle pump s deoxygenated blood(blood without oxygen) to the lungs which pick up oxygen (oxygenated)u just have breathed in,from the alveoli.this is then pump into the right ventricle and atrium where it is pumped to the rest of the body through arteries,capillaries and veins.

oxygenated blood contains more of oxygen content than carbondioxide, and this blood is circulated throughout the blood.blood gets oxygenated in the lungs.the oxygenated blood then goes to the heart where it gets pumped and is circulated in the whole body.all body parts absorb oxygen and release carbondioxide into the blood stream.this is referred to as deoxygeneted blood which ges to the heart and is then pumped to the lungs for oxygenation. None of these bloods are harmful if they are in their limiting concentrations.oxygenated blood is healthy for metabolism.if carbondioxide content is more in blood or if carbonmonoxide is present in blood,it is harmful and in extreme conditions even fatal.
