Which is the correct sequence of steps in respiration?
a. Transport of gases by the blood
b. Breathing or pulmonary ventilation
c. Cellular respiration
d. Diffusion of `O_(2)" and CO_(2)` between blood and tissues
e . Diffusion of =`O_(2)" and "CO_(2)` across alveolar membrane

A

`btoetoatodtoc`

B

`btoatoetoctod`

C

`btodtoatoetoc`

D

`btoetodtoatoc`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Respiration involves the following steps :
(i) Breathing or pulmonary ventilation by which atmospheric air is drawn in and `CO_(2)` rich alveolar air is released out.
(ii) Diffusion of gases `(O_(2)" and "CO_(2))` across alveolar membrane.
(iii) Transport of gases by the blood.
(iv) Diffusion of `O_(2)" and "CO_(2)` between blood and tissues.
(v) Utilisation of `O_(2)` by the cells for catabolic reactions and resultant release of `CO_(2)` (cellular respiration).

How the transport of O_(2) and CO_(2) by blood happens?

Given below is a list of different steps (i-vi) involved in respiration. (i) Utilisation of O_(2) by the cells for cataolic reactions. (ii) Transport of gases by the blood. (iii) Pulmonary ventilation by which atmospheric air is drawn in and CO_(2) is released out. (iv) Release of resultant CO_(2) . (v) Diffusion of O_(2) and CO_(2) between blood and tissues. (vi) Diffusion of gases ( O_(2) and CO_(2) ) across alveolar tissues. Select an option which has correct sequence of all the steps.
