Which parts of our body are in action
when we yawn?
Our mouth opens and we breathe in
deeply. The abdominal muscles are
stretched, the rib cage raises and the
diaphragm is pushed down.
141

Where does the exchange of oxygen
and carbon dioxide take place between
our body and the atmosphere?
The exchange of oxygen and carbon
dioxide takes place in the air sacs.
142

In what forms are oxygen and carbon
dioxide carried around our body?
Oxygen is transported mainly in form
of oxyhaemoglobin in red blood cells.
