We breathe in air consisting of oxygen through or nasal cavity or mouth. This air goes into the the trachea and then splits off into the two lungs, and finally to the alveoli (air sacs). Blood capillaries containing deoxygenated blood are wrapped around the alveoli. The oxygen enters the capillaries, while the carbon dioxide goes back in the air sacs. Then, the carbon dioxide goes back up the trachea and out of the mouth or nasal cavity. Then, the process repeats again with a new breath.
