The 22 pages that link to Gas exchange, each with the reason it gives.

• Dissolved oxygenRelated: Oxygen crosses the air–water boundary through this process.

• Mechanical ventilationRelated: Ventilation aims to support oxygen uptake and carbon-dioxide removal.

• VentilationRelated: Ventilation renews the air or water used at gas-exchange surfaces.

• Amniotic eggRelated: An embryo must obtain oxygen and release carbon dioxide through the egg’s coverings.

• Tracheal systemNarrower topic: The tracheal system is one anatomical solution for delivering gases to cells.

• Book lungNarrower topic: Book lungs are one anatomical solution to this basic physiological process.

• Pulmonary circulationRelated: It explains how blood changes oxygen and carbon dioxide content in the lungs.

• Respiratory failureNarrower topic: Respiratory failure is a failure of this exchange at the lungs.

• Ventilation–perfusion mismatchNarrower topic: Ventilation–perfusion matching supports effective gas exchange in the lungs.

• Circulatory systemRelated: Circulation connects lung gas exchange with oxygen use in distant tissues.

• Pulmonary fibrosisRelated: Thickened, scarred air-sac walls make this transfer less efficient.

• Organ systemRelated: It links respiratory surfaces with blood and metabolically active organs.

• Recirculating aquaculture systemRelated: Fish consume oxygen and release carbon dioxide, so circulation alone cannot maintain suitable gases.

• Tube feetRelated: Thin tube-foot surfaces can contribute to gas exchange in some echinoderms.

• Valve timingNarrower topic: Valve timing governs the openings through which cylinder gas exchange occurs.

• BreathingRelated: Breathing brings fresh air to the lungs, but gas exchange transfers oxygen and carbon dioxide.

• Passive transportRelated: These gases cross respiratory surfaces mainly by diffusion down partial-pressure gradients.

• Diving bell spiderNarrower topic: The spider’s chamber supports underwater oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide release.

• Physiological phenomenaRelated: It links respiration to oxygen delivery and carbon dioxide removal.

• Pulmonary alveolar proteinosisNarrower topic: Accumulated alveolar material thickens the barrier through which pulmonary gases must pass.

• SpirulaRelated: Gas exchange across the siphuncle helps adjust fluid and gas in the shell chambers.

• Transport (biology)Related: It depends on transport across respiratory surfaces and onward through the body.
