Under normal circumstances, carbon dioxide is excreted from the the body by lungs.

Human beings have a pair of lungs that are spongy in nature and located on the sides of the chest. They are surrounded by pleura which is a layer of thin tissue. The cells in the body require oxygen. The primary function of the lungs is to transport oxygen from the air we breathe to the cells of the body and excrete carbon dioxide received in exchange for oxygen from the cells. Alveoli are present within the lung parenchyma where the exchange of gases takes place with the blood capillaries. Carbon dioxide is then exhaled from the lungs.

The lungs also serve as a means for the absorption and excretion of water and other pharmacological agents and also protect the body from unfavorable substances.

Answer:

All options are correct, that is, they would all be correct for osteoarthritis.

This disease is characterized by being very painful at the joint level, it is degenerative, and mobility decreases over time.

Explanation:

Osteoarthritis is a pathology that is based on the fegenerative destruction of the joints, generating edema and loss of function, that is why it is pain.

The pain is very intense and very marked, that is why it is treated with immunosuppressive drugs and analgesics. (In addition to kinesiology and physiotherapy).

This disease decreases the functional unit and the joint space, generating possible ankylosis, pseudoarthrosis, elimination of lubricating fluid from joints and nodular structures. These nodular structures tend to be more common in the hands and are called by professionals as "drum fingers".
