Solution

The correct option is C

Carbogen


Carbogen is a mixture of 95% oxygen and 5% carbon dioxide. Researchers claim that use of 5% carbon dioxide helps in the widening of blood vessels, smoothening of vessel walls that aids respiration. Thus, carbogen is used in artificial respiration in the medical field.
