Cells produce carbon dioxide (CO2) as a byproduct of metabolism, particularly during cellular respiration. This CO2 diffuses out of the cells into the bloodstream, where it is transported to the lungs. In the lungs, CO2 is expelled from the blood and exhaled out of the body when we breathe out. This process is essential for maintaining the body's acid-base balance and overall respiratory function.

When you exhale what gas does your body get rid off?

When you breathe out, your body gets rid of Carbon Dioxide (CO2).


How does a cell gets rid of waste products like carbon dioxide?

Carbon dioxide is removed from cells by a process known as diffusion.


How do the respotoriy system and circulotory system work together?

The respiratory system functions to bring oxygen into the body and make it available to the cells, and to remove carbon dioxide from the cells and expel it. The cardiovascular system works with the respiratory system by picking up the inhaled oxygen and delivering it to the body's cells, and by taking carbon dioxide from cells and delivering it to the lungs to be exhaled.


What is a clear colourless liquid used to test for a gas which you body gets rid of?

Limewater. (Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2)). As a liquid it is clear and colourless. However, the human body breathes out (gets rid of) carbon dioxide. When carbon dioxide is bubbled through limewater, it turns milky ( white cloudiness). which is a very fine suspension of calcium carbonate particles. Below is the balanced reaction equation. Ca(OH)2 + CO2 = CaCO3 + H2O NB Humans breath in (inhale) air, which is a mixture of gases ; nitrogen , oxygen, water vapour, carbon dioxide, and trace amounts of the noble gases. Only one of these gases is of value to the human organism, viz. oxygen. In the lungs oxygen is picked up by the blood stream. Transported around the body to where its needed. Processed. The resulting gas is carbon dioxide, which is transported in the blood stream, back to the lungs and exhaled out, together with the other atmospheric gases. Carbon dioxide is also vital to the human organism as it helps to regulate the breathing rate of approximately 14 or 15 breaths per minute, when relaxed. On exercise, it allows the breathing rate to increase, in order for the body to gain more oxygen.

What do your cells do to get rid of they carbon dioxide they make?

The carbon dioxide diffuses into the plasma portion of the blood and is carried to the heart. From there it is carried to the lungs where it is released when you exhale.

Blood comes from the heart to lungs to have what done?

To get rid of the carbon dioxide produced in the cells of your body, and to get new oxygen to transport to your cells.


What happens to the blood while it is in the lungs?

It gets rid of carbon dioxide, then it takes the oxygen and gives it to cells. Carbon dioxide is cell waste.

What is the job of breathing?

The job of breathing is to bring oxygen into the body and remove carbon dioxide from the body. Oxygen is needed for cells to produce energy through a process called respiration, and carbon dioxide is a waste product that needs to be expelled.
