    Oxygen dissolves in the moisture lining alveoli and diffuses into red blood cells, where it combines with hemoglobin to form oxyhemoglobin. Blood flowing to the alveoli from tissues has a lower oxygen partial pressure and higher carbon dioxide partial pressure than alveolar air, since oxygen has been used by tissues for cellular respiration and carbon dioxide produced by tissues is transported to the alveoli by the blood to be exhaled.

    Have low partial pressure of

    because blood that reaches

    Most oxygen has been taken
    up by tissues for cellular

    Have high partial
