Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Internal respiration refers to the exchange of gases between the blood and tissues, which occurs in the capillaries throughout the body. Cellular respiration refers to the process by which cells convert nutrients into energy, which occurs within the cells themselves. Neither of these processes occurs in the lung, where the exchange of gases occurs between the air in the lungs and blood in the capillaries.
