Lesson Summary. In summary, carbon dioxide is a metabolic waste product of ATP synthesis. As our cells produce carbon dioxide, it diffuses into the blood, where it is transported to the lungs for expiration. Some of the carbon dioxide is transported dissolved in the plasma. Some carbon dioxide is transported as carbaminohemoglobin.
The smallest particle of carbon dioxide that still has the properties of carbon dioxide is called a molecule. The molecule of carbon dioxide is composed of an atom of carbon t â¦ hat has double bonds to two oxygen atoms. The CO2 that we observe can be written as O=C=O to demonstrate the bonding.
