The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the body and the air occurs in the lungs. This exchange of gases takes place at the cellular level through passive transport. Predict the effect of this process on homeostasis if carbon dioxide could not diffuse easily across the cell membrane and justify your response.

Hope this helps:

Explanation:

There are two basic ways that substances can cross the plasma membrane: passive transport, which requires no energy; and active transport, which requires energy. Passive transport is explained in this section and Active transport is explained in the next section, Active Transport and Homeostasis.

And also

Diffusion is the spontaneous movement of gases, without the use of any energy or effort by the body, between the gas in the alveoli and the blood in the capillaries in the lungs. Perfusion is the process by which the cardiovascular system pumps blood throughout the lungs.

it marks things for degradation via the proteasome. it alters there celluar location.
