What is the purpose of air spaces in the spongy layer?
The air spaces between the cells provide a way to interchange gases (CO2 and Oxygen) for the process of photosynthesis.
What are the functions of the stomata?
the exchange of carbon dioxide to oxygen.help things to get in the leaf. (water e.c.t.)water, CO2,sunlight can get in when the stomate is open
Why do plants need stomata and air space?
The air space keeps the stomata moist so that transpiration and gas exchange can occur. The gas exchange in the stomata needs to take place so that photosynthesis can occur. So without the air space you have no stomata, and without the stomata you have no photosynthesis which is how plants obtain their food.
Air that leaves the air sacs is rich in the gas?
Oxygen is 'transported' from the lung capillaries to the body capillaries - in an inverse fashion carbon dioxide is transported from the body capillaries to the Lung Alveoli - the Answer is 'It is rich in CO2."
What organelles take up CO2 and give off O2 in plant cells?
Chloroplasts take up CO2 and give off O2.
What does blood carry - and where does the exchange of substances take place?
blood carry gases like o2,co2...nd the exchange of substances take place in small intestine
Where can you exchange a co2 tank?
There is not a place where you can trade in Co2 tanks. Except possibly a pawn shop.
What is one important structural characteristic in the lung?
the alveoli. without the billions of alveoli the lungs could not exchange CO2 for 02
The exchange between alveoli and capillaries allows what?
gas exchange to take place/to allow cells to lose CO2 and gain O2 so they will be oxygenated and ready to be pumped around your body.
Why circulation takes place in animals and plants?
To exchange gases such as co2 and o2
Why is it better for a lung to consist of thousands of tiny air sacs rather than one large air sac?
Consisting of thousands of tiny air sacs increases the surface area inside of the lung which allows for better gas exchange. If the lung was made of one larger air sac, you would not be able to exchange as many gases (oxygen/CO2) with each breath.
What is H2CO3H2O CO2?
exchange
How do animals exchange gas?
They take in oxygen and release co2 by their skin, lungs and sometimes tissue in their throats.
What other substance is needed for the respiration to take place?
Co2
Why exchange of substances blood and cells take place through capillaries?
Capillaries have thin and permeable walls which allow the exchange of substances (such as nutrients, oxygen and CO2) to occur. This enables substances to dissociate throughout the entire body (as capillaries are present throughout the entire body).
Will diffusion take place in co2 gas and bromine gas?
Yes.
Reactions that require CO2 take place in?
the calvin cycle alone
