Gaseous exchange is the process where we get the oxygen we need into our bodies and the Carbon dioxide, that we produce during respiration, out. This process takes place in little sacks of the lungs called alveolus. These Alveolus have several features that encourage gasseos exchange to take place including moist, one cell thick walls. The gases move by the process of deffusion. Deffusion is when gasses spread from an area of high concentratio to low concentration. The oxygen diffuses into the blood and the carbon diffuses int the lung. (Red blood cells exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen. -TRIP)

-oxygen flows into red blood cells-

Red blood cells exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen. Apex
