Is stomata a tissue or organ?
It would be an organ, since they serve a purpose. In this case the roots extract water from the soil.
What is biological imortance of air dissolved in water?
Oxygen can be dissolved in water. This is biologically important because animals that live in the water, such as fish, need to get oxygen from the water to perform respiration and live.
Where does the oxygen for cellular respiration come from?
Large quantities of oxygen are dissolved in water and make up a large percentage of air. Organisms extract it from these media. The ultimate source of molecular oxygen in the air and water appears to be as a byproduct of photosynthesis in plants and some single-celled organisms.
If there is oxygen in water why can't we breathe underwater?
If you recall from basis chemistry, water is made up of 2 hydrogens and 1 oxygen. The reason why we can't breathe underwater is because the oxygen molecule is already bound to the hydrogen molecules. Oxygen in this form is useless to our lungs. Our lungs can't extract oxygen from water
What produces dissolved oxygen?
A) light reaction alone B) Clavin cycle alone C) both A & B D) neither of both E) Occur in the chloroplast but not the part of photosynthesis
How does shark breathe in oxygen?
Like all fish, sharks extract dissolved oxygen from the water through their gills.
Can jellyfish breathe on land?
No. The extract dissolved oxygen from water.
What is the oxygen dissolved in water is a?
The oxygen dissolved in water is a measure of dissolved oxygen (DO).
How do you spell fish guils?
The correct spelling is "fish gills." Fish gills are respiratory organs that help fish extract oxygen from the water.
Does a fish turn water into oxygen?
No, not at all. Most fish extract the oxygen that is dissolved in the water, not the oxygen that is bound to hydrogen in the formation of water. This is one reason that most aquariums have an aerator bubbling away - it is adding oxygen to be dissolved by the water.
Does water put oxygen in your body?
No. We cannot get oxygen from water. The oxygen that forms part of the water itself is locked away in H2O molecules and our bodies have no way of extracting it. Most water does contain dissolved oxygen, but since we do not have gills we cannot extract that either.
Do you breathe water?
We do not breathe in the water as we can't breathe dissolved oxygen.Dissolved oxygen are oxygen that are dissolved into the water.
What body parts allow fish to get oxygen they need from water?
Fish extract dissolved oxygen from the water by passing the water through their gill slits. Inside the gills is very thin tissue that can 'grab' oxygen right out of the water and put carbon dioxide waste into the water.
What is dissoving?
Dissolved Oxygen is the bubbles in water when you splash there's bubbles in the water that is Dissolved Oxygen.
How can you extract water and oxygen from moon rocks?
Water you can extract if the force is with you.
What dissolves krypton?
Well, as air is found dissolved in water and fish extract the oxygen of the air, then any gas will dissolve in water. Air also contains a small amount of the Noble gases which are therefore present in the air dissolved in it.
What are the importances of dissolved air in water?
Although fish and other sea life live in water, they still need oxygen from air to function. They use gills (other something similar) to extract air from the water for respiration. If their was no air dissolved in the water, they would suffocate.
