प्रश्न
How are oxygen and carbon dioxide exchanged in our body during respiration?
उत्तर
Gaseous exchange in our body takes place in the alveoli of lungs. The oxygen of air diffuses out from the alveoli walls into the blood. As the blood passes through the tissues of the body, the oxygen present in it diffuses into the cells. This oxygen combines with the digested food present in the cells, to release energy. Carbon dioxide gas, which is produced as a waste product during respiration in the cells of the body tissues, diffuses into the blood. Blood carries the carbon dioxide back to the lungs, where it diffuses into the alveoli.

There is a pair of bean-shaped organs P in the human body towards the back, just above the waist. A waste product Q formed by the decomposition of unused proteins in the liver is brought into organ P through blood by an artery R. The numerous tiny filters S present in organ P clean the dirty blood by removing the waste product Q. The clean blood goes into circulation through a vein T. The waste substance Q, other waste salts, and excess water form a yellowish liquid U which goes from organ P into a bag-like structure V through two tubes W. This liquid is then thrown out of the body through a tube X.
