What two organ systems are involved in gas exchange?
The respiratory system and the circulatory system
What is it called when amphibians breathe through their skin?
cutaneous gas exchange
Do adult amphibians still use their skin for gas exchange?
through gills
What is the primary gas exchange organ for most plants?
Stomata
What two body organ systems are involved in gas exchange?
The respiratory system and the circulatory system are involved in gas exchange. The respiratory system allows for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs, while the circulatory system transports these gases between the lungs and the rest of the body's tissues.
What type of land animals are able to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide through their skin?
Amphibians, such as frogs and salamanders, are able to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide through their skin. Their skin is thin, moist, and highly vascularized, allowing for this gas exchange to occur.
Where do amphibians live in different phases of life - how exchange gases?
Without getting into the gas exchange issue, amphibians start out life as eggs and larvae in the water. As they mature into adulthood they break free from the water and crawl onto dry land.
Which animals have moist skin?
Amphibians.. because they exchange gas partly through their skin, so gases must be able to move in and out - Their skin's got to be permeable and moist.
What is the adaptive value of having the organ of gas exchange inside the body?
Having the gas exchange organ inside the body allows for more efficient exchange of gases with the environment by minimizing exposure to external factors such as temperature and humidity. This internal placement also provides protection against physical damage and reduces the risk of desiccation. Additionally, it allows for more precise regulation of gas exchange processes.
What is the site for gas exchange?
the organ that is involved in gas exchange is the lung. the specific lung structure that is the site for gas exchange is the alveolus which is part of the alveoli, which is found in the lung.
What organ has alveoli wrapped in capillaries for gas exchange?
The organ that has alveoli wrapped in capillaries for gas exchange is the lungs. Alveoli are tiny air sacs where oxygen from inhaled air diffuses into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide from the blood diffuses into the alveoli to be exhaled. This efficient gas exchange process is facilitated by the close proximity of the alveoli to the surrounding capillaries.
Why do we called lungs as the main organ in respiratory system?
Because that is where the primary gas exchange happens.
