External respiration takes place in the lungs, specifically within the alveoli, which are tiny air sacs that facilitate gas exchange. During this process, oxygen from inhaled air diffuses into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide from the blood is expelled into the alveoli to be exhaled. This exchange is essential for maintaining the body's oxygen levels and removing metabolic waste.

What is the difference between internal and external respiration?

External Respiration is the exchange of O2 and CO2 between the body and the environment. It involves moving air in and out of the lungs and the exchange of gases between the alveoli and the blood capillaries. The gases must also be exchanged between the blood capillaries and the cells of the body. This is called internal respiration. Some sources say this is the same as tissue respiration, but to me that means the chemical reactions which take place in our cells to release energy, the most usual of which is glucose + oxygen --> carbon dioxide and water.
