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

When a gas is compressed, the volume it occupies decreases, causing the gas molecules to be closer together. The number of molecules remains the same, as no molecules are added or removed during compression.


What are All gas exchanges are made by?

In animals, gas exchanges are primarily made by diffusion across respiratory surfaces such as the lungs or gills. This is where oxygen enters the bloodstream and carbon dioxide exits. In plants, gas exchange primarily occurs through small openings called stomata on the leaves.
