Exhalation
Exhalation (or expiration) is the movement of air out of the bronchial tubes, through the airways, to the external environment during breathing.

Exhaled air is rich in carbon dioxide, a waste product of cellular respiration during the production of ATP.

Exhalation has a complementary relationship to inhalation; the cycling between these two efforts define respiration.
