Best Answer
The lungs exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen. e.g. Expiration removes CO2; Inspiration brings O2.


The lungs also expel nitrogen and other trace gases found in the air (such as argon). Some oxygen is also included as not all the oxygen you inhale is used by the body.

Why inhaled gases is different from exhaled gases?

Inhaled gases is oxegen and exhaled gases you CAN'T brethe in because it's carbon dioxide.


How does concentration of inhaled and exhaled air differ?

Inhaled air contains more oxygen than carbon dioxide and other gases. Exhaled air contains mostly carbon dioxide as the inhaled oxygen was used up to create energy. Waste carbon dioxide (and other unwanted gases) is then let out of the body and the cycle continues. :)Gas exchangeGas% in inhaled air% in exhaled airOxygen2116Carbon dioxide0.044Nitrogen7979


Which air is heavier out of inhaled air and exhaled air?

Exhaled air, which has a slightly higher amount of carbon dioxide, is heavier than inhaled air.


How is air inhaled and exhaled?

Breathing.


How does the oxygen and carbon dioxide content of exhaled air differ from inhaled air?

Exhaled air has more carbon dioxide and less oxygen than does inhaled air.


Does inhale air has more oxygen or exhaled air?

Inhaled air is richer in oxygen than exhaled air.


Which contains more oxygen inhaled air or exhaled air?

Inhaled air contains more oxygen than exhaled air because the cells have not yet used that oxyginated air.


What is the differences between inhaled air and exhaled air?

Inhaled air contains a greater volume of oxygen than carbon dioxide. Exhaled air is the opposite, since after the exchange of gases in the lungs the carbon dioxide in the blood is transferred into the lungs. Exhaled air contains a greater volume of carbon dioxide than oxygen. Also, there is more water vapour in exhaled air than inhaled air.


Which gas does the exhaled air contain?

Exhaled air will contain all of the gases in regular air, except that it will have higher percentages of carbon dioxide and lower percentages of oxygen. (It still will have oxygen, or CPR wouldn't work.) It will also have water vapor from our lungs. The main gas in inhaled and exhaled air is nitrogen. This is followed by oxygen, then carbon dioxide, then other gases. Yes, there is still more oxygen exhaled than carbon dioxide, but at a smaller percentage than was inhaled. Chances are that your teacher is looking for the gas, carbon dioxide, as your answer, since that is the product of cellular respiration that is disposed of in exhaled air, but it isn't the main component of exhaled air.


What are the 3 main difference between the exhaled and inhaled air?
