Where does the air in your body go?

The air we breathe is mainly composed of oxygen and nitrogen. When we inhale, our lungs absorb the oxygen into the bloodstream for our cells to use, and then we exhale the unused oxygen along with carbon dioxide. The air we breathe eventually gets exhaled back into the atmosphere.

Is the job of the circulatory system to bring fresh air to blood?

No. The circulatory system does transport various gasses around the body but the main gas the body needs is Oxygen (and not 'fresh air'). The blood transports breathed in Oxygen from the lungs into the tissues and organs and transports waste gasses such as carbon dioxide from the tissues and organs to the lungs to be expelled when breathing out. The circulatory system's job is transportation of the gasses to and from where they need to go in the body.


Why is it harder to breathe the higher you go up in the air?

As you go higher in the air, the air pressure decreases, resulting in less oxygen available per breath. This makes it harder for your lungs to extract enough oxygen for your body's needs, leading to difficulty in breathing.


Where does oxygen go after entering nose of mouth?
