What happens to the carbon dioxide collected in human tissues?
Answer (2)
Carbon dioxide in the tissues is produced as the result of oxidation of glucose... This carbon dioxide in process of respiration diffuse out of the tissues in form of molecular carbon dioxide and join with water forming carbonic acid ... In lungs again carbon dioxide is separated and released out of the body...
Carbon dioxide collected in human tissues diffuses into the blood, where it is transported in three main forms: dissolved CO₂, bound to proteins, or as bicarbonate ions. The majority is converted to bicarbonate in red blood cells and is carried back to the lungs. In the lungs, CO₂ is converted back from bicarbonate and expelled during exhalation.
