ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Once in the lungs, oxygen is moved into the bloodstream and carried through your body. At each cell in your body, oxygen is exchanged for a waste gas called carbon dioxide. Your bloodstream then carries this waste gas back to the lungs where it is removed from the bloodstream and then exhaled.

Detailed explanation-2: -CO2 is transported in the bloodstream to the lungs where it is ultimately removed from the body through exhalation. CO2 plays various roles in the human body including regulation of blood pH, respiratory drive, and affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen (O2).

Detailed explanation-3: -From the heart the blood is pumped back to the lungs where the carbon dioxide is released from the blood into the air sacs to be breathed out.
