Question
Chapter 6.1, Problem 3MC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
How organisms get oxygen to their cells.
Concept introduction:
Breathing or respiration is a process by which carbon dioxide is expelled out of the body and oxygen is respired into the body. Respiration is not just a physical process of inhalation and exhalation, but it’s also a biochemical process that involves gas exchange.
