as a person inhales oxygen it goes through the pharynx towards the trachea or windpipe and goes to the lungs. in the lungs the exchange of gases in the blood happen in the alveoli where in blood releases carbon dioxide and receives oxygen before returning to the heart. the carbon dioxide is then exhaled through the opposite direction but same passage as of the inhalation. the oxygenated blood that returned to the heart is then pumped back to the body for systemic circulation delivering oxygen to the different cells of the body and again collecting carbon dioxide.

Where does the produced pyruvate go in the second stage of cellular respiration?

In the second stage of cellular respiration, pyruvate is transported into the mitochondria, where it enters the citric acid cycle (also known as the Krebs cycle). Within the citric acid cycle, pyruvate is further broken down to generate energy in the form of ATP.


Why it is known as the Krebs cycle in respiration?

It is the citric acid cycle that is part of cellular respiration and is named after Hans Adolf Krebs.


Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are part of which cycle?

While photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, cellular respiration requires oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. It is the released oxygen that is used by us and most other organisms for cellular respiration.

What is the shortest carbon cycle?

The shortest carbon cycle is the respiration cycle, where carbon dioxide is released during the process of cellular respiration by living organisms. This cycle involves the exchange of carbon between organisms and the atmosphere in a relatively quick timeframe.
