Pulmonary gas exchange
Oxygen intake is the amount of oxygen the body absorbs, typically measured during physical exertion to assess cardiovascular fitness or metabolic function.
Athletes and researchers track oxygen intake to evaluate endurance capacity: Her oxygen intake increased significantly after months of training.
The term appears in exercise physiology and medical contexts.
