Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The ultimate use for the O2 in the cell is to be stated. Whether the O2 that is inhaled, incorporated into the CO2 that is exhaled is to be explained. The source of CO2 that is exhaled is to be described.

Concept introduction:

A person needs oxygen to provide energy to the body for various cellular processes. This ultimately occurs when oxygen accepts electron during the electron transport chain or oxidative phosphorylation process. This process ultimately produces high energy adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecules that can be used to produce useful chemical energy to conduct desired reaction.
