The answer should be the respiratory system.

When we breathe, air is taken in our body and they travels to the lungs through the trachea. The lungs is the site where the oxygen from the air we just breathed is exchanged with the carbon dioxide (waste).

In the lungs, there's something call air sac, which diffuses the oxygen to the capillaries. At the same time, carbon dioxide from the capillaries diffuses back to the air sac. Then, we breathe out and the carbon dioxide and the remaining substances in the air that we don't need is breathe out.

That explains why there's more oxygen in the unbreathed air than oxygen from breathed air, and less carbon dioxide in unbreathed air than breathed air.

And after that, the capillaries transfer these oxygenated blood to the pulmonary vein, and then transfer them back to the heart.

What is gene?
The term "gene" has a variety of meanings in biology. The molecular gene is a segment of nucleotides in DNA that's also translated to produce a functional RNA, whereas the Mendelian gene is the fundamental unit of heredity. Protein-coding genes as well as noncoding genes are the two categories of molecular genes. DNA will be first copied into RNA during gene expression. The RNA may perform a specific function directly or may serve as an intermediate template for just a protein. The basis for the inheritance of phenotypical is the transfer of genes to an organism's progeny.

What are 3 terms used to describe organisms such as trees
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Autotrophs, producers and Plants

Explanation:

Trees occupy a special position in the food web of most of all organisms. They can belong to several specie of plants and can vary in physical traits like height, fruit kind, fruiting non fruiting aspect etc. But three things that can describe trees are:

1: Autotrophs: This is because trees can prepare their own food through the process of photosynthesis and several other organisms depend upon them for food.

2: Producers: Being able to synthesize their own food, trees are known as producers because they not only prepare their own food but also food for many other organisms like humans.

3: Plants: Because trees are just a sub category or kind of plants, the terms plants can be used to describe several characteristics of trees.

Hope it helps!
