Answer 1

Answer:

respiration

Explanation:

While we breathe in we inhale oxygen and when we breathe out we exhale carbon-di-oxide.

The exchange of oxygen and carbon-di-oxide is called respiration.

Answer 2

The process of moving air in and out of the body is called Respiration.

• respiration is defined in physiology as the transfer of oxygen from the external environment to the cells within tissues and the removal of carbon dioxide in the opposite direction, that is, back into the external environment. 
• The biochemical definition of respiration, which refers to a metabolic process through which an organism obtains energy (in the form of ATP and NADPH) by oxidizing nutrients and releasing waste products, differs from the physiological definition.
• Although cellular respiration and the subsequent maintenance of life in animals depend on physiologic respiration, the two processes are distinct: cellular respiration occurs within individual organism cells .
• Whereas physiologic respiration deals with the diffusion and transport of metabolites between the organism and the external environment.
