What else can I help you with?
How do two capillary networks function in the fish circulatory system?
provides a large surface area for exchange in oxygen and gas?
What does the zone of cell elongation do?
provides a large surface area for transportation
Where in the lungs does gas exchange happen?
AlveoliGaseous exchange takes place in the alveoli of the lung
Why is there large surface area for the alveoli?
The function of alveuli is to provide a surface for gas exchange. Therefore, a large surface area means that there is a lot of area for the gas exchange to take place. Therefore it is to improve efficiency of gas exchange in the lungs (exchanging carbon dioxide for oxygen). The large surface area is due to the shape of the alveoli- the have many small "pockets".
What are The air sacs in your lungs that create a large surface area for diffusion called?
The air sacs in the lungs that create a large surface area for diffusion are called alveoli. These tiny, balloon-like structures facilitate the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the air and the bloodstream. Their extensive surface area allows for efficient gas exchange, which is crucial for respiratory function.
How does your body adopt surface area to volume ratio to help exchange gases-?
The skin surface is not large enough for big creatures such as humans; therefore we have structures in our lungs that greatly increase the surface area.
What type of bone helps to increase the amount of surface area?
Trabecular bone, also known as spongy or cancellous bone, helps to increase the surface area within the skeletal structure. Its porous, lattice-like architecture provides a large surface area for the exchange of nutrients and minerals, as well as for housing bone marrow. This increased surface area enhances the bone's strength and ability to withstand stress while maintaining a lightweight structure.
Which will dissolve faster a substance with little surface area or the one with a large surface area?
A substance with a larger surface area will dissolve faster because it provides more contact points for the solvent to interact with, leading to a faster rate of dissolution compared to a substance with little surface area.
Explain why large active organisms need special surface for exchange?
large organisms need larger area to exchange more substances.but large organisms have small surface area to volume ratio.this means that the surface is not large enough to enable gases and nutrients at the fast rate needed to keep all the cells alive.thus large organisms need special exchange surfaces to provide the body with the nutrients and gaseous exchange they require.
What organ does oxygen pass from into the capillaries?
I believe its the alveoli in the lungs. These alveoli provide a large surface area for gaseous exchange.
What features of the alveoli mean that gas exchange is more efficient?
They Have A large surface area and they are full of red blood cells
Which type of bone provides a large flat surface area for muscle attachment?
Flat bones, like scapula
