The percentage inhaled is roughly 79% but it is only 74% when exhaled. The volume of Nitrogen does not change but the percentage out of all the exhaled gas decreases as there is far more CO2 and Water Vapour. Nitrogen itself not actually used up by the body, it is simply a byproduct of the nitrates and various emissions involved in photosynthesis from plants and various algae that get pumped with whimsical abandon into the atmosphere. Typical trees. Lest not forget the delicate equilibrium between humans and plants.

Does exhaled air and inhaled air have the same amount of nitrogen?
Biological value
Name a gas whose concentration is the same in inhaled air and exhaled air?
nitrogen
Why is the amount of nitrogen same in inhaled and exhaled air?
Nitrogen is not used by the body; oxygen is taken in and carbon dioxide and water goes out.
What is the differences between inhaled air and exhaled air?
Inhaled air contains a greater volume of oxygen than carbon dioxide. Exhaled air is the opposite, since after the exchange of gases in the lungs the carbon dioxide in the blood is transferred into the lungs. Exhaled air contains a greater volume of carbon dioxide than oxygen. Also, there is more water vapour in exhaled air than inhaled air.
Which air is heavier out of inhaled air and exhaled air?
Exhaled air, which has a slightly higher amount of carbon dioxide, is heavier than inhaled air.
How is air inhaled and exhaled?
Breathing.
How does the oxygen and carbon dioxide content of exhaled air differ from inhaled air?
Exhaled air has more carbon dioxide and less oxygen than does inhaled air.
Does inhale air has more oxygen or exhaled air?
Inhaled air is richer in oxygen than exhaled air.
Which contains more oxygen inhaled air or exhaled air?
Inhaled air contains more oxygen than exhaled air because the cells have not yet used that oxyginated air.
How is inhaled air different from exhaled air?
Because the body has used the oxygen in the air to oxidize the nutrients you eat, this process combines the oxygen that you inhaled with carbon which makes up part of the nutrients you eat to form a poisonous gas "carbon-dioxide" which is then transported back to the lungs and exhaled along with moisture.
What gas is eliminated when you exhale?
Carbon dioxide is exhaled (whereas 20% oxygen is inhaled, since the vast majority of the remainder of inhaled air is composed of nitrogen, 79%).
What are the 3 main difference between the exhaled and inhaled air?
Exhaled air has less oxygen than inhaled air.Exhaled air has more carbon dioxide than inhaled air.Exhaled air is warmer that inhaled air.Maybe the first 2 are redundant, but I think that should work!
