You breath in oxygen which is O2
What is exhaled is CO2 or carbon dioxide.
The reason for this is the human metabolism is based on the reaction between Glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen gas (O2). The oxygen reacts with the glucose to produce carbon dioxide and water to release energy for out bodies to use.
6O2 + C6H12O6 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
We need to get rid of the carbon dioxide because it is toxic.
The water produced is of little consequence as our bodies are mostly water anyway.

What do plants inhale and exhale during photosynthesis?
plants inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen
Is all the oxygen you inhale used by your body?
No, not all the oxygen you inhale is used by your body. About 20% of the oxygen we breathe is used by the body for energy production through respiration, while the remaining 80% is exhaled back out into the atmosphere.
What do trees inhale at night?
Trees don't really inhale, they take in gases. Trees take in air but they use the carbon dioxide from the air, and let out oxygen as a waste product of this. They continue doing this all day and night exactly the same
What gas do we inhale?
The main gas we inhale is oxygen, which is essential for our body to produce energy through respiration. Other gases present in the air we breathe include nitrogen and trace amounts of carbon dioxide and other gases.
What do you inhale made by plants?
Oxygen is produced by plants through the process of photosynthesis, and it is the primary gas that is inhaled by animals, including humans.
Why do cats inhale oxygen?
Why do we all inhale oxygen.. every single animal in the world needs oxygen. Fish too
Do arctic wolves inhale and exhale oxygen?
Like all animals, they inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide.
Do parrots inhale oxygen?
Yes, all animals inhale oxygen. Parrots breathe through their nostrils as opposed to their mouths.
What do all living creatures inhale during respiration?
They inhale air. What they extract from the air is oxygen.
Why dont animals use up all the oxygen in the atmosphere?
Animals do not use up all the oxygen in the atmosphere because plants produce oxygen. When they breathe, plants inhale carbon dioxide (which is what animals breathe out) and exhale oxygen (which is what animals breathe in).
Which is the non metal which all living beings inhale?
It is oxygen

Why we don't use all the oxygen we breathe in?
The air we breathe is made up of about 21% oxygen. Our bodies primarily use oxygen for metabolism, and the amount we need is relatively small compared to the total volume of air we inhale. The excess oxygen is exhaled to maintain a balance in the body.
