    Overview of the Process of Respiration

    Respiration involves the following steps:

    • Breathing or pulmonary ventilation by which atmospheric air is drawn in and CO2  rich alveolar air is released out. It is also called gaseous exchange by lungs.
    • Diffusion of gases (O2 and CO2) across the alveolar membrane. This is called external respiration.
    • Transport of gases by the blood.
    • Diffusion of O2 and CO2 between blood and tissues. This is called internal respiration.
    • The utilisation of O2 by the cells for catabolic reactions and resultant release of CO2. this is called cellular respiration.
