19 In what part of the respiratory system does the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occur?
Lungs
Where in the respiratory system does gas exhcange occur?
Gas exchange occurs in the alveoli in the respiratory system. The thin-walled structures allow diffusion of gases into and out of the capillaries.
Where in the respiratory tract does gas exchange occur?
The gas occurs by simple diffusion through the cells.
What is The Respiratory System's role in energy metabolism?
The respiratory system's role in energy metabolism lies is to allow the exchange of gases to take place in the lungs and tissue cells. Oxygen is needed for certain metabolic reactions to occur and for the production of energy.
In order to compensate for the increased demands for respiratory gas exchange with the tissues during exercise several changes occur in the functioning of the cardipulmonary system you should be able?
increase
Where in the respiratory system does gas change occur?
in the alveoli
How does gas exchange occur when the circulatory and respiratory systems work together?
it occurs through the heart
What part of the respiratory system is responsible for filtering the air as you breathe?
The respiratory system does not contain any structure that filters air. The trachea and bronchus are lined with a mucous membrane that helps trap debris and carry it out of the body, but this is not a filtration system.
Which organs cause inhalation and exhalation to occur?
Respiratory system.
Does the gas exchange function of the respiratory system occur in the alveoli?
Yes gas is transferred through the alveolar/capillary membrane in the alveolus. Gas moves from the alveolar air sacs to the pulmonary capillaries.
Where in the repiratory system does gas exchange occur?
Between the avioli and the lungs.
Where do goblet cells occur in the respiratory system?
Goblet cells are in the respiratory epithelium, which lines the airways from the pharynx down into the lungs. They secrete mucous.
