VENTILATION involves the mechanisms of inspiration (inhaling) and expiration (exhaling). These two mechanisms are need for the absorption of oxygen gas into the lungs and removal of carbon dioxide from the body. When oxygen is inhaled, it diffuses into the blood capillaries and is carried by hemoglobin which is a component of the blood back to the heart in the pulmonary vein. The left ventricle of the heart then contracts which pushes the oxygenated blood around the body in the main blood vessel known as the aorta which divides into other smaller blood vessels. The oxygenated blood is transported to every cell of the body. De-oxygenated blood from the body travels back to the heart in the vena cava. This is called CIRCULATION and is what makes up the circulatory system.
The oxygen pumped around the to cells is used to assist the production of ATP in aerobic RESPIRATION. It is the final hydrogen acceptor in the oxidative phosphorylation stage of respiration. Without it the pH of the blood will be fatally low.
NUTRITION, involves the absorption of digested food substances that can be used as respiratory substrates as a source of hydrogen ions for respiration. Substances such as lipids and fats are a good source of H ions for respiration.
What else can I help you with?
What is the main relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
The products of photosynthesis are used in the process of cellular respiration and vice versa.
Differentiate between external inertial cellular respiration?
The external inertial respiration refers to breathing, while the cellular respiration refers to respiration between the cells.
What is one true distinction between fermentation and cellular respiration?
cellular respiration uses oxygen but fermentation does not use oxygen
What is the relationship between cellular respiration and glucose?
Glucose is the primary raw material / reactant required to generate pyruvate, which is then used in the Krebs cycle. In the process of cellular respiration, oxygen is introduced into the Krebs cycle to generate NADPH and ATP for energy for cells.
What is the major similarity and difference between cellular respiration and respiration and photosynthesis?
That it have cell
What is the relationship between the processes of breathing and cellular respiration?
Respiration and breathing are the same thing.
What is the main relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
The products of photosynthesis are used in the process of cellular respiration and vice versa.
Relationship between two the products of photosynthesis and the reactants in cellular respiration?
The relationship is when the cellular respiration takes CO2 through the plants system it helps bring what is needed for photosynthesis to occur.
What is the relationship between digestion and respiration?
You need oxygen to convert food into energy and this process is called cellular respiration
Differentiate between external inertial cellular respiration?
The external inertial respiration refers to breathing, while the cellular respiration refers to respiration between the cells.
What is the relationship between the reactants and products of cellular respiration and photosynthesis?
they are the same, both are glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2).
What is an example of body systems working together to perform a single function?
Cellular respiration. Cells need oxygen that enters the body through the respiratory system, then the circulatory system does the oxygen and carbon dioxyde exchange to complete cellular respiration. Digestive and circulatory - nourishment Urinary and circulatory - excrements, filtration etc
What is one true distinction between fermentation and cellular respiration?

What is the similarities between cellular respiration and respiration?
they are both proccesses to help homeostasis
What is the relationship between cellular respiration and glucose?

What is the relationship between cellular respiration and photosythesis?
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are interconnected processes. Photosynthesis in plants captures energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, while cellular respiration in plants and animals releases energy from glucose by breaking it down with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and ATP. Essentially, photosynthesis generates the oxygen and glucose needed for cellular respiration to occur.
