Which is a reason that diffusion of CO 2 from an animal is less problematic than diffusion of O 2 into an animal?

The atmospheric partial pressure of CO 2 is negligible compared to the atmospheric partial pressure of O 2 . This means that there is a much smaller gradient for CO 2 to diffuse into an animal compared to the gradient for O 2 , making it less problematic.
