The process that allows oxygen and carbon dioxide to transfer is called respiration. In the lungs, oxygen is taken in from the air we breathe and is exchanged for carbon dioxide that is then exhaled. This gas exchange occurs in the alveoli, tiny air sacs in the lungs, where oxygen enters the bloodstream and carbon dioxide leaves it.
Gas exchange
Chloroplasts are the organelle in plant cells that produce sugar and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water through photosynthesis.
The organelle responsible for gas exchange in plants is the chloroplast. Carbon dioxide enters the chloroplast, where it is converted into oxygen during photosynthesis. In animals, the lungs are responsible for gas exchange, where oxygen is taken in and carbon dioxide is released.
The chloroplast is an organelle that converts energy and produces CO2 and water.
The transfer of oxygen from the alveoli into the capillaries in the lungs, and the transfer of carbon dioxide from the capillaries into the alveoli (i.e. breathing in, and the oxygen going into the blood, and carbon dioxide going into the lungs to be expelled when we breathe out).
The cardiovascular system is where the respiratory system transfers oxygen.
No. Carbon dioxide is a chemical compound of carbon and oxygen.
Carbon dioxide is a compound consisting of carbon and oxygen.
Carbon is an element, but not carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a compound of carbon and oxygen.
Oxygen-Carbon Dioxide Cycle- a continuous exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide by plants and animals including human
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.
