Gas exchange occurs in the lungs, where oxygen from inhaled air passes into the bloodstream, and carbon dioxide, a waste product of metabolism, moves from the blood into the alveoli to be exhaled. Breathing involves the mechanical process of inhaling and exhaling air, driven by the diaphragm and intercostal muscles. This process facilitates gas exchange by ensuring a continuous supply of oxygen while removing carbon dioxide from the body. Together, these processes are essential for maintaining cellular respiration and overall metabolic function.

What is the exchange of air in the body called?
breathing but breathing along with cellular respiration would be called respiration
Do frogs have Pharyngeal Pouches?

Where is the actuall gas exchange in the breathing?
