Where is carbon dioxide produced?

Answer 1

Everywhere! Carbon Dioxide is a product of cellular respitation, and almost every cell in your body does cellular respiration in order to use energy from sugar you eat from food.

When you use more energy (example: running) , more carbon dioxide is produced by your cells and more of it needs to be moved out of your body. So when you muscles are working hard, your lungs are also working hard to take in needed oxygen and release carbon dioxide.

Answer 2

Carbon dioxide is produced in the cells by respiration (oxidation of carbohydrates to make energy). It is picked up by blood which is also delivering new oxygen to the cells. The blood enters the veins and goes to the right atrium, and is pumped by the right ventricle to the lungs. The blood carries the carbon dioxide into the alveoli of the lungs where it releases it. The lungs exhale the carbon dioxide through the bronchial tubes to the trachea, and it leaves the body through the nose and mouth.

A small amount of carbon dioxide is released through the sweat glands, along with other excreted body chemicals.

Answer 3

Most of the body's HCO3- is produced in the red blood cells

Answer 4

inside the cell during cellular respiration

Answer 5

Bicarbonate is not digested in your body. Bicarbonate helps in digestion in small intestine. Bicarbonate is secreted by your pancreas in large quantity.

Answer 6

saliva or food bag

Answer 7

Every living cell.

Answer 8

Respiration

Answer 9
