For completion of respiration process, write the given steps in sequential manner:
(a) Diffusion of gases (`O_(2)` and `CO_(2)`) cross alveolar membrane.
(b) Transport of gases by blood.
(c) Utilisation of `O_(2)` by the cells for catabolic reactions and resultant release of `CO_(2)`.
(d) Pulmonary ventilation by which atmospheric air is drawn in and `CO_(2)` rich alveolar air is released out.
(e) Diffusion of `O_(2)` and `CO_(2)` between blood and tissues.

To complete the respiration process, the steps can be arranged in the following sequential manner: 1. **Pulmonary ventilation**: This is the process of breathing, where atmospheric air is drawn into the lungs and carbon dioxide-rich air from the alveoli is expelled out. This step initiates the respiratory process. 2. **Diffusion of gases across the alveolar membrane**: Once the air reaches the alveoli, oxygen (O₂) diffuses from the alveoli into the blood, while carbon dioxide (CO₂) diffuses from the blood into the alveoli. 3. **Transport of gases by blood**: The oxygen that has entered the blood is then transported by the bloodstream to various tissues throughout the body. ...
