Explain how cells in our toes receive oxygen from the air.

First, we breathe in, the air travels from our mouth or nose through the pharynx, larynx, trachea, and bronchi (left or right )where O2 goes through the smaller tubes aka bronchioles which lead into the alveoli. The air fills the alveolus. O2 goes into the deoxygenated blood and the CO2 goes to the alveolus. The blood carries the O2 around the body to the cells which is how cells in our toes receive oxygen.
