What is a primary function of a respiratory system?
Gas exchange
What is the main function of the resporitory system?
Gas exchange. Those gasses being oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Which of the following structures is involved in the gas exchange function of the respiratory system?
Trachea, brochi, alveoli,lungs
What system provides gas exchange between blood and air?
Capillary system is where gas exchange occurs
How do two capillary networks function in the fish circulatory system?
provides a large surface area for exchange in oxygen and gas?
What are the differences between the digestive and respiratory systems?
The respiratory system is the gas exchange of erythrocytes and the lungs, and erythrocytes and the rest of the body. The digestive system is the process of digestion. Respiratory: Involves gas exchange and lungs, plus the heart. Supplies the body with oxygen and gets rid of carbon dioxide. Includes ventilation (pulminary), internal and external gas exchange. You can get the idea, I hope. Digestive system: Is the process of absorbing nutrients you have eaten and excreting it through the colon. Involves enzymes. Involves the stomach, esophagus, mouth, small intestine, duodenum, liver, gall bladder, pancreas, colon, (pardon if I missed a few). Water gets reabsorbed in the colon.
What is the primary function of the respiratory systems?
Gas exchange
What is the function of the air spaces in a leaf?
Gas exchange
Does the gas exchange function of the respiratory system occur in the alveoli?
Yes gas is transferred through the alveolar/capillary membrane in the alveolus. Gas moves from the alveolar air sacs to the pulmonary capillaries.
What is the elastic unit of the respiratory system where gas exchange occurs?
Alveoli is where gas exchange occurs.
What is the function of avoli?
Gas exchange (between blood and air).
What is the main function of the cells indicated by the black pointer?
regulate the rate of gas exchange
