The lungs have been adapted especially for making gas exchange more efficient. They are made up of clusters of alveoli, which are tiny air sacs with large surface areas, and are kept moist. They also have a rich blood supply, which maintains a concentration gradient in both directions. Carbon dioxide constantly being removed from the blood and oxygen constantly entering the lungs means that gas exchange happens at the highest concentration gradients to make it rapid and effective.

Are effusion and diffusion are two ways that gases mix with other gases?
True.
What are the parts of the body that adapted to aid diffusion?
lung and heart
Why diffusion is maximum in gases?
rate of diffusion is inversely proposnal to density, density of gas is less. so diffusion rate is high
Does micropyle in the ovule help in diffusion of respiratory gases?
yes
Does diffusion occur slow or fast?
Gases, Liquids, and then Solids.
How is a fish specialy adapted to exchange gases by diffusion?
XD
What microscopic respiratory structure where gases are exchanged?
This exchange of gases does not depend how "hard" you breathe but operates on the principle of Diffusion
When two gases are mixed what is it called?
A process of gas diffusion occur and a mixture of gases is obtained.
How does the structure of the capillaries help diffusion occur fast enough to keep you alive?
The structure of capillaries help diffusion occur fast enough to keep you alive by the nutrients and gases occurs in these specialized blood vessels which are between arteries and veins.
Do gases show the property of diffusion?
Yes, gases do show the property of diffusion as its molecules are loosely packed.
How does gases enter and leave capillaries?
Simple diffusion.
Why rate of diffusion in liquid is slower than in gases?
The rate of diffusion in liquids slower than that of gases because gases have low density and its float in the air.
Why do gases show the property of diffusion?
Diffusion occur in all phases.
What is the process of diffusion in gases?
carbonation
Are effusion and diffusion are two ways that gases mix with other gases?
True.
Diffusion of gases is discovered by whom?
Graham
Is diffusion faster in liquids?
no fastest in gases
