What is a basic structure of a c programming?
Basic structure of a C program is /* Documentation section */ /* Link section */ /* Definition section */ /* Global declaretion section */ /* Function section */ (return type) (function name) (arguments...) void main() { Declaration part Executable part (statements) } /* Sub-program section */ (return type) (function name 1) (arguments...) (return type) (function name 2) (arguments...) . . . (return type) (function name n) (arguments...)

How alveoli are adapted for gaseous exchange by diffusion between air in lungs and blood in capillaries?
1.They are single cell thick 2.Thin film of moisture covering the alveoli allows the oxygen to dissolve in therefore making the process efficient 3. they have a large surface area 4.they are surrounded by network of blood capillaries maintaining the concentration gradient for the gaseous exchange
