CO2 is lost in the lungs during the process of respiration, specifically through gas exchange in the alveoli. When blood reaches the lungs, it has a higher concentration of CO2 compared to the air in the alveoli. This concentration gradient allows CO2 to diffuse from the blood into the alveolar air, where it is then exhaled. This process helps to regulate blood pH and maintain proper respiratory function.
What else can I help you with?
How do O2 CO2 and H2O move into the lungs?
The gases get into your lung when you breathe.
Is a lung transplant necessary for interstitial lung disease?
Not for mild interstitial lung disease. However, if it becomes severe, limiting the ability of the lung to do any useful work of breathing (oxygen in and CO2 out), then a lung transplant may be the only thing that will help.
Bronchi carry what into the what?
bronchi provides air to the lung. They carry both oxygen and co2.
What travels through the bronchi?
Bronchi carries air to lung. Mainly o2 and co2.
What do your bronchi and brochioles do?
bronchi and brochioles provide air to the lung. They carry both oxygen and co2.
What is the function off the lung?
Intake of oxygen from the outside world carrying it into the bloodstream, and exhalation of CO2.
What does the bronchi and brochioles do?
Actually bronchi and brochioles provide air to the lung. They carry both o2 and co2.
What organism releases carbon dioxide into the air?
Humans do, and all animals! We breathe in O2 and breathe out CO2.
How carbon dioxide in important in respiration?
CO2 is expired because when you expire your diaphram moves in and up decreasing lung volume, thus increasing the concentration of CO2 in the lungs. Then diffusion naturally occurs and the CO2 is expired and O2 is then inspired.
You lost a lung can you sue the tobacco company?
No, because it was your choice to buy the product!!
What is one important structural characteristic in the lung?
the alveoli. without the billions of alveoli the lungs could not exchange CO2 for 02
What does 24 percent lung capacity mean?
It means that you have lost 76 percent of your normal lung capacity. Your lungs do not hold as much air anymore.
