Question

Gas exchange that occurs at the level of the tissues is called. Select one: a. Pulmonary ventilation b. External respiration c. Internal respiration d. Interpulmonary respiration

Answer 1

Answer: Gas exchange that occurs at the level of the tissues is called internal respiration. The correct option is C.

Explanation:

Respiration a process in living organisms involves the production of energy, with the intake of oxygen and the release of carbon dioxide from the oxidation of complex organic substances. There are about four types of respiration and these includes:

- Ventilation

- External respiration

- Internal respiration

- cellular respiration

In respiration, passive movement of gases by diffusion occurs between cell surfaces in a process called gas exchange. Without this process, oxygen cannot be taken into the cells and carbondioxide released. I hope this helps. Thanks.

Answer 2

Answer: Option C.

It is called internal respiration.

Explanation:

Respiration is the process of inhaling oxygen from the outside environment and exhaling carbon dioxide ,which lead to the release of energy.

Respiration can be divided into internal , external, ventilation and cellular respiration.

Internal respiration or peripheral gas exchange occurs in the tissue where oxygen moves out of the blood and carbon dioxide is transported out of the cells.

External respiration occurs in the lungs where oxygen move into the blood and carbon dioxide diffuses into the alveolar air.
