Answer:

Expired air has a lager amount of carbon dioxide than oxygen.

Expired air is more warmer.

Exhaled air contains water vapour in a relatively larger amount than inhaled air.

Inspired gas is mainly used for the oxidation of food for energy whereas expired gas is the bi product of oxidation and is toxic in nature.

Answer:Brainliest and thx pls.

Inhaled air -Higher level of oxygen

                 -Lower level of CO2.

                 -Less water vapour.

                 -Colder or warmer then 37degrees.(variable)

                  -Dirtier.

Exhaled air-lower level of oxygen

                 -Higher level of CO2.

                 -Saturated with water vapour.

                 -Close to body temperature(37degrees).

                 -Cleaner(filtered)

Explanation:

The composition of exhaled air (air that is breathed out) is very different from the composition of inhaled air (air that is breathed in). Inhaled air has the same composition as normal air, it contains:

78% nitrogen

21% oxygen

1% inert gas such as argon

0.04% carbon dioxide

little water vapour

Exhaled air contains less oxygen and more carbon dioxide, it is also saturated with water vapour. Exhaled air contains:

78% nitrogen

16% oxygen

1% inert gas such as argon

4% carbon dioxide

saturated with water vapour

The difference between the amount of oxygen in inhaled and exhaled air is equal to the difference in the amount of carbon dioxide in exhaled and inhaled air. This oxygen is used to originate the blood capillaries in the lungs which is the essential component of the breathing mechanism.
