What do the respiratioy system do?
The respiratory system is the anatomical system of an organism that introduces respiratory gases to the interior and performs gas exchange. In humans and other mammals, the anatomical features of the respiratory system include airways, lungs, and the respiratory muscles. Molecules of oxygen and carbon dioxide are passively exchanged, by diffusion, between the gaseous external environment and the blood.
Diffusion in the respiratory system?
Diffusion of O2 and CO2 occurs at the alveoli in the lungs.
How does oxygen moves from the respiratory system to the circulatory system?
by diffusion across a capillary wall
How does oxygen move the respiratory system to the circulatory system?
by diffusion across a capillary wall
What is the site of gaseous exchange in an insects?
Insects have a unique respiratory system made up of small tubes called tracheae. The tracheae connect all parts of the body to small openings on the surface of the insect. Oxygen and carbon dioxide are transported through the tracheae (which the site of gaseous exchange) and from the tracheae to the blood of the insect by diffusion.
In what organ of the respiratory system is carbon dioxide released in its gaseous form?
The lungs
How does the respiratory system move air to and from gas exchange surfaces?
diffusion
Where does the diffusion take place in the respiratory system?
in the lungs
What role does diffusion play in the Respiratory System and circulatory system?
hai :) it is in your book dont be lazyass.
What is the respiratory system of a jellyfish?
hydra has no specialized respiratory organs and exchanges of gases take place via simple diffusion from surface lining of the enteron on so in this way the surface lining of enteron acts as an efficient respiratory surface
Where in the respiratory system does gas exhcange occur?
Gas exchange occurs in the alveoli in the respiratory system. The thin-walled structures allow diffusion of gases into and out of the capillaries.
Where in your respiratory system does the exchange of O2 happen?
Gaseous exchange occurs in the alveoli (singular = alveolus) of the lungs.
