More Oxygen, because some of it is processed into Carbon Dioxide (CO2).

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!


Does argon make up 100 times more of an exhaled breath than of an inhaled breath?

No, argon makes up a very small percentage of both inhaled and exhaled breath, around 0.93% in the atmosphere. The composition of argon in exhaled breath is almost the same as in inhaled breath, as we do not metabolize it.


How does the oxygen and carbon dioxide content of exhaled air differ from inhaled air?

Exhaled air has higher levels of carbon dioxide and lower levels of oxygen compared to inhaled air. This is because the body takes in oxygen from the air and releases carbon dioxide as a waste product during the process of respiration.


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.


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.

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.

Which contains more oxygen inhaled air or exhaled air?

Inhaled air contains more oxygen than exhaled air. When you breathe in, oxygen is taken into your lungs and absorbed into your bloodstream. When you breathe out, you release carbon dioxide produced by your body and some of the oxygen has been used up.


Which gas is more plus abundant in exhaled air than inhaled air?

Carbon dioxide (CO2).


Will water vapour decrease in amount after being exhaled by a human and before it was inhaled by a human?

exhaled water vapor will be greater than inhaled water vapor


Does inhale air has more oxygen or exhaled air?

Inhaled air has more oxygen compared to exhaled air. When we inhale, we take in fresh oxygen from the environment to use for cellular respiration. As we exhale, we release carbon dioxide and the remaining oxygen that was not used by the body.


Which two gases are which you exhale more than inhale?

Carbon dioxide is exhaled more than it is inhaled, as it is a waste product of metabolism. Nitrogen is also exhaled more than it is inhaled because it makes up a large percentage of the air we breathe, but is not used by our bodies.

Does inhaled air have less water vapor than exhaled air?

Yes


Which gas does the exhaled air contain?

Exhaled air will contain all of the gases in regular air, except that it will have higher percentages of carbon dioxide and lower percentages of oxygen. (It still will have oxygen, or CPR wouldn't work.) It will also have water vapor from our lungs. The main gas in inhaled and exhaled air is nitrogen. This is followed by oxygen, then carbon dioxide, then other gases. Yes, there is still more oxygen exhaled than carbon dioxide, but at a smaller percentage than was inhaled. Chances are that your teacher is looking for the gas, carbon dioxide, as your answer, since that is the product of cellular respiration that is disposed of in exhaled air, but it isn't the main component of exhaled air.


Why does exhaled air contain more carbon dioxide than inhaled air?

Carbon dioxide is an end product of the matabolism in humans and other higher animals. Sugars, fats and amino acids are broken down to produce energy for the body and carbon dioxide is an unwanted by-product which is returned to the lungs and exhaled.
