Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged in body tissues through the process of diffusion. Oxygen in the blood enters the tissue cells, where it is used for cellular respiration. Carbon dioxide, a byproduct of this process, moves from the cells into the blood to be transported back to the lungs for exhalation.

Which 2 gases are exchanged at the surface of the air sac?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged at the surface of the air sac. Oxygen is taken in from the air into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide is released from the bloodstream into the air to be exhaled.
What substances come out of the exchange at the capillaries?
Oxygen, nutrients, and waste products such as carbon dioxide are exchanged at the capillaries. Oxygen and nutrients are delivered to the tissues, while waste products like carbon dioxide are picked up for elimination.
How are oxygen and carbon dioxide exchanged between the alveoli and the capillaries?
Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the capillaries, where it binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells for transport to tissues. Carbon dioxide diffuses from the capillaries into the alveoli and is exhaled from the body.
What gases are begin exchanged in the alveoli?
Mostly oxygen & carbon dioxide - but also some nitrogen.
What organs are responsible for taking in oxygen and getting rid of carbon dioxide?
The lungs are responsible for taking in oxygen through the process of inhalation and getting rid of carbon dioxide through exhalation. Oxygen is transported in the blood to various tissues in the body, while carbon dioxide is carried back to the lungs and exhaled out of the body.
What are small vessels where oxygen is exchanged for carbon dioxide?
Capillaries are the small blood vessels where oxygen is exchanged for carbon dioxide. They are located throughout the body and allow for the exchange of gases between the blood and tissues.
What gases are exchanged in the respiratory system?
The gases that are exchanged are oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Which 2 gases are exchanged at the surface of the air sac?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged at the surface of the air sac. Oxygen is taken in from the air into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide is released from the bloodstream into the air to be exhaled.
Where are oxygen and carbon dioxide exchanged in the lungs?
oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged in alveoli (singular alveolus).
What is exchanged in the respiratory system?
Carbon dioxide

What gases are exchanged in respiratory system?
The gases that are exchanged are oxygen and carbon dioxide.
How are oxygen and carbon dioxide and other waste gases exchanged in the lungs and body tissues?
Not sure but I think it might be cellular respiration! Hope this helped! :)
