Where are oxygen and carbon dioxide exchanged in the body?
The alveoli sacks have many capillaries and the exchange occurs. O2 from the lungs hits the blood and CO2 is just given off.
Oxygen is given off as a by product?
in humans, oxygen is not a byproduct, it is absorbed into the human body through gaseous exchange to be processed into glucose, and the waste product is carbon dioxide.
How does the carbon dioxide-oxygen cycle balance?
Carbon-dioxide and oxygen is balanced in nature by plants, animals, and other organism(but mostly plants and animals).In the day we know plants inhale carbon-dioxide and us humans and animals exhale carbon-dioxide.So plants take in CO2(carbon-dioxide). Then the plants give out O2(oxygen) and we inhale it. In the night there is no sunlight for photosynthesis. So the plants take in O2(so do humans). So in the morning the carbon-dioxide exhaled by plants and animals at night are taken in by plants and given out by us.I think plants absorb a vast amount of CO2 for photosynthesis so that's why the balance of oxygen and carbon-dioxide remains the same in Nature.
What gas is given off when zinc carbonate is heated?
carbon dioxide, when carbonates are heated carbon dioxide is is given off.
What chemical is given off in a burning flame?
The principal components are carbon dioxide, water, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, soot.
What type of land animals are able to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide?
plants give off the oxygen in exchange for carbon dioxide given off by the animals. so, any land animal does that,. in the ocean, the oxygen makers are phytoplankton.
What two gases are exchange in the cell?
oxygen and carbon dioxide. oxygen is delivered by the blood into the cell and oxygen from the cell is is given to the blood in exchange to be expelled by the lungs.
What gas is given off in photosynthesis?
The gas given off by photosynthesis is oxygen, plants take in carbon dioxide and generate it into oxygen.
Oxygen is added to an ecosysem by?
Oxygen is given off by plants as they absorb carbon dioxide. It's like how animals breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide, except plants absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen.
What is a gas created by plants?
There are two, oxygen and carbon dioxide. Oxygen is produced by photosythensis, which is done only during the daytime. Carbon dioxide is given off by cellular respiration, which is done all the time. Overall, more oxygen is given off then carbon dioxide.
Waste product given off in the gas exchange between air and blood in the alveoli?
Carbon Dioxide. (CO2 )
What is given off by animals that is necessary for the oxygen carbon cycle to continue?
Carbon dioxide
Where does gas get exchanged in the circulatory system?
In lungs where carbon dioxide is released and oxygen absorbed and in cells where oxygen is given to cells and carbon dioxide is absorbed by blood.
What gases are given off when a candle is lit?
carbon dioxide and oxygen are given off
What gas is given off when coke and oxygen mix?
Carbon Dioxide
What gas do plants give off in the light How about in the dark?
It will take O2 gas. It will emit CO2 in the night.
Where are oxygen and carbon dioxide exchanged in the body?
The alveoli sacks have many capillaries and the exchange occurs. O2 from the lungs hits the blood and CO2 is just given off.
