I gave definitions to the ones I couldn't figure out. I hope it helps.

• Carbon dioxide- Carbon dioxide is essential to internal respiration in the human body where oxygen is produced and transported to body tissues. Its also a guardian of the blood's PH. When it exceeds certain amounts, carbon dioxide can lead to kidney damage and asphyxiation. 
• Cellular respiration- The set of the metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into (ATP) adenosine triphosphate, and release waste products. 
• Deoxygenated blood- Pumped by the right ventricle to the lungs via the pulmonary artery that is divided in two branches, right and left to the right and left lungs respectively. Blood is oxygenated in lungs and returns to the left atrium through pulmonary veins. 
• Lungs- Oxygen can pass into the blood and carbon dioxide be removed. 
• Oxygenated blood- Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart and deliver it to the body by capillaries and arterioles. 
• Plasma- The colorless fluid part of blood, milk, or lymph, which corpuscles or fat globules are suspended.
