Which transport mechanism is responsible for the movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide during internal and external respiration processes? 2. CELLULAR RESPIRATION PRODUCES ATP A. Living cells consume oxygen and excrete carbon dioxide during ATP synthesis using the chemical pathway called "cellular respiration". Name the substrates of this chemical pathway. Name the products of this chemical pathway. B. Humans will die if blood flow to cells stops (e.g. heart failure) or if breathing stops (e.g. respiratory failure) because cells cannot perform cellular respiration. Explain why body cells die if they are unable to obtain enough oxygen. Explain why high levels of carbon dioxide are also toxic to body cells.

Step 1
The transport mechanism responsible for the movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide during internal and external respiration processes is diffusion. Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli in the lungs into the bloodstream, where it binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells Show more…

During cell respiration, the reactants of glucose and oxygen are transformed into the products of carbon dioxide, water, and ATP. Which of the following cell transport processes would be relatively unaffected if a cell no longer had access to glucose? Choose 1 answer: A. The passive transport of a charged potassium ion (K+) through a cell membrane. B. The transport of sodium against its concentration gradient in a brain cell. C. The transport of calcium into a muscle cell via facilitated diffusion. D. The transport of an amino acid into an intestinal cell from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration gradient.
