Well, the air's oxygen is partially replaced by carbon dioxide. This is because of the gas exchange that occurs so we can live.

Answer from: germainenez8403

The air becomes rich in carbon dioxide inside the lungs.

Explanation:

The air enters the lungs through various parts of the respiratory system. Lungs have many balloon-like structures called alveoli. The alveoli have a very thin membrane and are surrounded by a rich network of blood vessels.

As the oxygen-rich air enters the alveoli of the lungs, oxygen from the air is diffused in the blood present in the blood vessels through the respiratory membrane while carbon dioxide gas from the blood enters the air.

The gaseous exchange occurs through the process of diffusion and is driven by the concentration gradient. It makes the air rich in carbon dioxide.

Answer from: Quest

sulfur dioxide

explanation: acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. these substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain.

Atp is is our little "pocket" of energy. of course, if you have too little, then it means you have too little energy, and you'll pass out. the way to not have enough, is to have no energy sources (glucose, fats, proteins). you can't have too many atp molecules. cycles like the krebs cycle produce it, but if you have too much of any substrate (or too little for that matter), the cycle stops and atp is no longer made (it stops until substrate levels are such that the process can go on). in any case, this is unlikely since atp is constantly hydrolyzed and remade, even while you're asleep. you won't have too much. if you have zero, you are dead or dying.
