Question
11/35
when you exercise, what gas does your body need more of?
blood
carbon dioxide
hydrogen
oxygen
During exercise, the body's metabolic rate increases, requiring more energy production. Cellular respiration, which produces energy (ATP), needs oxygen ($O_2$) to break down glucose. So the body needs more oxygen. Blood is not a gas, carbon dioxide is a waste product (produced more but not needed more), and hydrogen is not a primary gas needed for exercise - related respiration.
