need to breathe in oxygen to live which then gets dissolved in the blood. It will then go to the hearts which will pump blood and the oxygenated blood will go to other parts of the body. The tissues will absorb the oxygenated blood and give out carbon dioxide so when we breathe out we will breathe out carbon dioxide

The hai in the nose and mucus traps dust to make sure that the air we breathe in is somewhat clean and too much dust doesn't enter the lungs. When air, consisting of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, water vapour and other gases enters the lungs, only some oxygen enters the blood through the air sacs which is transported to all parts of the body through the blood vessels (arteries). 

When you exhale, the air in the deoxygenated blood is transported to the heart which is then pumped to the lungs where some carbon dioxide is removed form the blood. This air is warmer and has more water vapour and carbon dioxide. The diaphragm then moves upwards and air is forced out of the lungs, windpipe and out of the nose.]]> 2023-07-30 12:15:56 UTC https://padlet.com/SCDeptPadletFolder/jqf65l97byhnxior/wish/2653109406 I do not agree with this statement because there is always some nitrogen in the air that we breathe in and out https://padlet.com/SCDeptPadletFolder/jqf65l97byhnxior/wish/2653345536 Kathryn ]]> 2023-07-31 04:08:53 UTC https://padlet.com/SCDeptPadletFolder/jqf65l97byhnxior/wish/2653345536 Ruichen(B) https://padlet.com/SCDeptPadletFolder/jqf65l97byhnxior/wish/2653451898 I disagree because we breathe in air which contains nitrogen, carbon dioxide and many another gases besides oxygen.

The nose hair and mucus makes sure that the air is clean and dust won't enter the lungs. When air, consisting of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, water vapour and other gases enters the lungs, only some oxygen enters the blood which is transported to all parts of the body through the blood veins of the circulatory system. When you exhale, the air goes out of the lungs, the windpipe and the nose. This air consists of the same amount of nitrogen, lesser oxygen, more carbon dioxide, more water vapour and the same amount of other gases.

(B) That statement is false. This is because air is an mixture of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, water vapour and other gases. When you inhale, the air, not only oxygen but also other gases enters the nose, through the windpipe and into the lungs.

During exhalation, the diaphragm and intercostal muscles relax, reducing the chest cavity's size and causing air to be expelled from the lungs. Inhaled air contains more oxygen and less carbon dioxide, while exhaled air contains less oxygen and more carbon dioxide.

When we inhale, our diaphragm moves downwards and air enters through our nose or mouth and goes to the windpipe, then the lung but when we exhale, our diaphragm flattens to let air go out of our lungs.


A)

I do not agree as we don't only breathe in oxygen but we breathe in air which consists of different gases, the same thing for when we breathe out just carbon dioxide as there other gases too.

1) During inhalation(Breathing in), air enters the lungs. The process involves a few steps which are:
-----------------------------------
 Air Entry: Air enters through the nose or mouth, passes through the windpipe.
-----------------------------------
 Air Exits: Air flows from the higher pressure inside the lungs to the lower atmospheric pressure outside the body.
-----------------------------------
Differences between inhaled air and exhaled air:
 1) Oxygen content: Inhaled air contains a higher concentration of oxygen (approximately 21%) compared to exhaled air (approximately 16%)
-----------------------------------
(B)
Air(nitrogen, oxygen and other gases) enters the body 
------------------------------------
 Air In The Lungs: Oxygen from that air moves to your blood. At the same time, carbon dioxide, a waste gas, moves from your blood to the lungs and is exhaled (breathed out).
------------------------------------
In the Body: The Arteries will transport the o2 (oxygen) to all parts of the body and the body will transport the co2 (carbon dioxide) to the Veins that will transports the blood the co2 to the lungs.
------------------------------------
In The Cell: The Mitochondria will receive the food and combine them that makes like a chemical reaction which creates energy and co2.
