a. carbon monoxide
b. carbon dioxide
c. oxygen
d. oxygen bioxide
please select the best answer from the choices provided.
○ a
○ b
○ c

The respiratory system's main function in gas exchange is to take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide, a waste product of cellular respiration. Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas not normally removed as a primary waste (A is incorrect). Oxygen is taken in, not removed (C is incorrect). "Oxygen bioxide" is not a valid chemical compound (D is incorrect). So the correct answer is the option related to carbon dioxide.
