Expert Solution
Step 1

Gas movement at lungs:-

All pressure given below is in mm of Hg.

Gas Tissue At alveoli Oxygenated blood Deoxygenated blood
O2 [PO2]= 40 [Po2]=104 [PO2]=95 [PO2]=40
CO2 [PCO2]=45 [PCO2]=40 [PCO2]=40 [PCO2]=45

In alveolar air, the partial pressure of CO2 is 40 mm of Hg and its value in deoxygenated blood is 45 mm of Hg. So, CO2 moves from the venous end to the alveoli and O2 from the alveoli to the arterial end according to the above pressure gradient.

Gas movement at tissue:-

At tissue, oxygen moves from arterial end to tissue and CO2 from tissue to venous end.
