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