You breath in oxygen which is O2
What is exhaled is CO2 or carbon dioxide.
The reason for this is the human metabolism is based on the reaction between Glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen gas (O2). The oxygen reacts with the glucose to produce carbon dioxide and water to release energy for out bodies to use.
6O2 + C6H12O6 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
We need to get rid of the carbon dioxide because it is toxic.
The water produced is of little consequence as our bodies are mostly water anyway.
oxygen is one component of air, it makes up 22% of the volume of air. nitrogen makes up 77%. living things require oxygen in the proccess of respiration, which allows us to create energy. we inhale oxygen, it is absorbed by our lungs into our bloodstream, which trasports the oxygen to ourselves where respiration occurs.
Plants inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen during photosynthesis. They use the carbon dioxide to produce glucose using energy from sunlight.
No, not all the oxygen you inhale is used by your body. About 20% of the oxygen we breathe is used by the body for energy production through respiration, while the remaining 80% is exhaled back out into the atmosphere.
Trees do not inhale like animals do, as they do not have lungs. However, they absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide at night through a process called respiration. This is the opposite of what they do during the day through photosynthesis.
The main gas we inhale is oxygen, which is essential for our body to produce energy through respiration. Other gases present in the air we breathe include nitrogen and trace amounts of carbon dioxide and other gases.
Oxygen is produced by plants through the process of photosynthesis, and it is the primary gas that is inhaled by animals, including humans.
Why do we all inhale oxygen.. every single animal in the world needs oxygen. Fish too
Like all animals, they inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide.
Yes, all animals inhale oxygen. Parrots breathe through their nostrils as opposed to their mouths.
They inhale air. What they extract from the air is oxygen.
Animals do not use up all the oxygen in the atmosphere because plants produce oxygen. When they breathe, plants inhale carbon dioxide (which is what animals breathe out) and exhale oxygen (which is what animals breathe in).
It is oxygen
When you inhale you breath in oxygen
The vast majority of living organisms, and almost all multicellular organisms inhale oxygen duringrespiration.The di-atomic gas oxygen [O2].air
Plants inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen during photosynthesis. They use the carbon dioxide to produce glucose using energy from sunlight.

when lungs inhale oxygen what doesit exhale as waste
The air we breathe is made up of about 21% oxygen. Our bodies primarily use oxygen for metabolism, and the amount we need is relatively small compared to the total volume of air we inhale. The excess oxygen is exhaled to maintain a balance in the body.
