The only place i can remember where Argon is used, is in bulbs. Its an inert gas (very unreactive) which means the filament wont burn itself out if, unlike if it were in normal air.
I assume you want its significance inside the human body?

we use Argo gas in light bulbs. stops them from imploding. before light bulbs were vacuumed and when the blew the used to implode, so now days we use Argo gas.
