Respiratory - Answer- Deliver O2 to cells and remove CO2
Cellular respiration - Answer- Takes place in mitochondria of cells and creates ATP.
Form of oxidative phosphorylation
External respiration - Answer- O2 and CO2 are exchanged between the environment
and the cells of our body
Ventilation - Answer- Environment -> alveoli
Gas exchange - Answer- Alveoli -> pulmonary capillary blood
Transport of respiratory - Answer- Blood -> cells (3)
Occurs by diffusion (passive/no atp)
Other 2 occur by convective (needs atp)
