Carbon Dioxide is also what plants breathe then produce Oxygen!

What is wrong with you people? It's a simple question about respiration! Why must you turn everything into a reason to cram your own personal take on religion down everyone's throats!

when i had a vascular ablation, i exhaled the resulting gas - tasted acrid/burnt. asked doc about it, he said, "yup, the breakdown of the blood creates a gas, and your body gets rid of it thru respiration" gross, but pretty cool. the human body is fascinating!

Rees, if nitrogen was hard on our lungs we'd be dead, most of the air we breathe is nitrogen it only contains a small percentage of oxygen. That's why they give people pure oxygen in hospitals and some people carry oxygen tanks to increase their blood oxygen.

Hansome Ray, The more plants and trees humans chop down, combined with population growth, the less oxygen will be available for us to breathe. Sad that humans are so short sighted.

I fully agree with you! From what I see, you were implying that people should at least have the grammatical knowledge and spelling ability of a 5th grader. I know I sided/agreed with you not too long ago. Now, for that reason, I especially hate to break it to you, but at the moment you neither have your grammar or spelling ability ON a 5th grade level, nor did you learn them AT your 5th grade level (=in your 5th grade). You're welcome. Y'all are welcome! ;) P.s.: I am not a native English speaker, and I am pretty sure I made mistakes in my previous sentences - punctuation mainly, or order of words - due to which I am prepared/ready to be faced with a bit (or lots) of bashing! :) Still, I hope that most of you will get my point. :) FYI: this is the first time I gave someone a row. I have seen so many similar, "educational" - if not patronising - comments, and so far, I just simply let them slide. This time however, my blood started boiling and steam was coming out of my ears! The first, and hopefully the last time... Please be more humble and eager to learn, do some research and look up things before you mount your high horse! Speaking of which, I should dismount mine and Foxtrot Oscar...! ;D

Carbon Dioxide is what plants, animals breath and human breath Oxygen. The respiratory system helps us to work with the muscles and diaphragm helps the circulation in our bloodstream.

Hansome Ray, No that is a misconception. Any aerobic organism will breathe in Oxygen. Plants breathe in Oxygen and breathe out Carbon Dioxide. It's true that they use CO2 for photosynthesis so the CO2 they release during respiration is used up for photosynthesis.

Done the same. Tried everything to quit smoking. Had hypnosis and lit up on the way home. When I started, no health warnings, it was cool.! Nothing cool about being unable to take the rubbish out without needing my inhaler.

Hansome Ray, nope. plants also breathe oxygen. u r confusing photosynthesis with breathing in plants

it's a process of ecosystem.. humans breathe in.. oxygen n breath out carbon dioxide..whereas plants breath in carbon dioxide n n breath out oxygen..

Not only do the lungs remove carbon dioxide, they also remove deadly air or water vapour
