The conduction of air in and out of the body is known as ventilation.
b b b b b b b b b b b b b
Since the question asks for the body’s mechanism, this would be
b b b b b b b b b b b
spontaneous ventilation. External respiration involves the exchange
b b b b b b b
of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) between the alveoli and the
b b b b b b b b b b b b
pulmonary capillaries. Internal respiration occurs at the cellular
b b b b b b b b
level and involves movement of oxygen from the systemic blood into
