The body system responsible for exchanging gases with the environment is the respiratory system. This system facilitates the intake of oxygen from the air and the expulsion of carbon dioxide, a waste product of metabolism, back into the environment. Key structures of the respiratory system include the lungs, trachea, bronchi, and alveoli, where the actual gas exchange takes place.
