Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Ventilation is the process of taking in oxygen and giving out of carbon dioxide with the help of the movement of ribs, diaphragm and the muscles of the ribs. It is different from the process of breathing as in respiration there is breakdown of glucose, also which is accompanied by the release of energy. It is the process that supports life on Earth.
