What else can I help you with?
What is the importance of solubility of gases to aquatic animals?
Aquatic animals still breathe oxygen, even if in water. If there's little oxygen dissolved in the water, they will suffocate.
How are mineral salts and oxygen beneficial for aquatic life?
Yes. Marine animals breathe in the oxygen dissolved in the water and thus can live.
How does oxygen get into water for fish to breathe?
Oxygen partially dissolves in water. Respiratory systems of aquatic animals are adapted to get this dissolved oxygen. They have gills for respiration.
Do aquatic plants and animals breathe in Oxygen or Carbon Dioxide?
well oxygen dissolves in the water and makes it dissolved oxygen and so they still take in regular oxygen just mixed with water
Why animals living in the water breath faster as compared to land animals?
because there are less amount of dissolved oxygen in water so that aquatic animals breathe more faster in order to get more oxygen.
Why breathing rate of aquatic organisms is faster than the terrestrial animals?
The breathing rate of aquatic animals is faster than that of terrestrial animals because the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water in much less than the amount outside, so they have to breathe more in order to get more oxygen
Is there enough oxygen under water?
No, there is not enough dissolved oxygen in water for humans to breathe. Aquatic animals have adapted to extract oxygen from water using gills, while humans would need specialized equipment like scuba gear to breathe underwater.
Can a clam breathe under water?
Yes. All aquatic animals have respiratory organs of one sort or another - usually gills - to absorb dissolved oxygen from the water.
What uses dissolved oxygen?
Dissolved oxygen in water is essential for the survival of aquatic organisms like fish and plants. It is used by these organisms for respiration, which is the process of extracting energy from food. Low levels of dissolved oxygen can lead to stress or death in aquatic life.
Because they trap oxygen from the atmosphere in the water for animals to breathe?
The lungs are the organs that "trap" oxygen from the atmosphere for animals to breath. Lungs do not really trap oxygen, however, they present a tissue to the oxygen-rich air in which the oxygen may diffuse into, where it can be captured by the hemoglobin in the blood.
Is it good to have dissolved oxygen in water?
Well,it depends. If you are talking about if things are going to live in the water such as fish, then yes. Although, aquatic plants like algae need Carbon dioxide dissolved in the water just like plants on land do. However, it will not cause any noticeable effects if you dissolve oxygen in water.
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.
