The size of your respiratory system depends on how big you are. It gradually gets larger as you grow from an infant to an adult.
large area
A decrease in the surface area of the respiratory membrane will result in a decrease in gas exchange.
cos day breathe in H2O innit and there trachea is more complex and blood vessels spread out on the gills to create a bigger surface area. :)
Black Lung disease works by building up coal dust on the surface area of your lungs, therefore reducing the overall surface area of your lungs and reducing the efficency of the lungs.
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

Ozone can affect both lungs and respiratory system. It is because it acts as a pollutant over the surface.
Respiratory surface is the surface where respiratory gas exchange in an animal. Ex-lungs
the respiratory surface for protists is the alveolis and capillaries
Our bodies only absorb 4% of the available 21% Oxygen in the air that we breathe in. The surface area of the lungs is the same size as a tennis court !
The respiratory system is the system that handles breathing.
It is the lining of the alveoli that acts as our respiratory surface.
