In animals, the process of taking up oxygen from the environment and releasing carbon dioxide to the environment.
Process of oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide release within the lung. The rate at which the gases "exchange" in perfluorochemicals depends upon the difference in the partial pressure of the gases in the liquid versus the surrounding blood environment in the lung.
The exchange of Oxygen for Carbon Dioxide which takes place in the Alveoli of the Lungs.
The process by which oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged between the lungs and the bloodstream.
The process in which oxygen from inhaled air is transferred into the blood and carbon dioxide from the blood is transferred into the alveoli. It is a primary function of the lung and occurs across the alveolar wall.
Primary function of the lungs involving transfer of oxygen from inhaled air into blood and of carbon dioxide from blood into the lungs for exhalation.
The primary function of the lungs involving the transfer of oxygen from inhaled air into the blood and the transfer of carbon dioxide from the blood into the exhaled air.
The movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the blood and the air in the lungs. Oxygen moves from air sacs in the lungs into the surrounding blood capillaries, while carbon dioxide passes from the capillaries into the air sacs.
Gas exchange is the exchange of carbon dioxide for oxygen.
the process of exchanging gases from the environment with gases resulting from metabolism inside an animal's body across a gas exchange surface, such as the exchange surfaces of gills and lungs.
