In animals, the amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide inhaled by the lungs is different from the amounts exhaled. Why?(1 point) Responses Cellular respiration produces carbon dioxide and uses oxygen so less oxygen in exhale and more CO2 Cellular respiration produces carbon dioxide and uses oxygen so less oxygen in exhale and more CO2 Oxygen is a product of cellular respiration so there will be more in each exhale Oxygen is a product of cellular respiration so there will be more in each exhale No carbon dioxide is used as a reactant in cellular respiration so there will be less in each exhale

The correct response is: Cellular respiration produces carbon dioxide and uses oxygen so less oxygen in exhale and more CO2.

This statement accurately reflects the process of cellular respiration, where oxygen is used to produce energy and carbon dioxide is generated as a waste product, leading to lower levels of oxygen and higher levels of carbon dioxide in exhaled air compared to inhaled air.
