Gaseous excange takes place in the alveoli of the Lungs during respiration

External respiration refers to the act of mechanically pulling air into the lungs via breathing. Internal respiration is the exchange of gasses from blood to tissue and vice versa.
plasma cells
There are many substances they exchange, but the main ones are oxygen from the blood to the cells and CO2 from the cells to the blood.
In an adult organism most cells are specialized (only stem cells aren't). The types of specialized cells include blood cells, muscle cells, nerve cells, skin cells, liver cells, etc. Cells are orgainzed into organs, which collectively form bodies.
External Respiration is where gasses are absorbed into the blood through the alveolar capillary beds. Internal respiration is where the gasses are transferred into the cells from the blood.
Specialized cells.
A specialized function shared by the many cells lining the lungs and the lumen of the gut is increased exchange surface provided by their membranes. Interstitial fluid provides for the exchange of materials between blood and body cells.
yes
Red blood cells, also called erythrocytes, carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body tissues. These cells contain hemoglobin, a protein that binds to oxygen and facilitates its transport throughout the body.
in the blood
white blood cells
It is specialized cells
Gasses are exchanged mostly through the cells
Oxygen and food
stem cells
they don't have a nucleus.
