As with most organs in the human body, gaseous exchange in the heart takes place via the capillaries, tiny blood vessels that release oxygen from the lungs into body tissue and receive carbon dioxide to transport back to the lungs.

What gases are exchanged in the circulatory system and where?

Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged by way of the circulatory system. Cells use oxygen for energy and produce carbon dioxide as a waste. Capillaries are where this exchange occurs. Veins carry this product back to the heart. This blood goes to the lungs were you blow off the carbon dioxide and take in oxygen. So the circulatory system and lungs work together to exchange gases.
