Carbon dioxide and other toxic substances are formed in the cells as the end pr6ducts of combustion and other processes in the cells. So formed carbon dioxide dissolves in the blood. When this impure blood implementing carbon dioxide enters the lungs, carbon dioxide in the air breathed tt1e published in the lungs and is with him.
