What systems do you use when you dance?
Nervous system - voluntary movements, posture Skeletal system - voluntary movements, posture Muscular system - voluntary movements, posture Circulatory system - delivery of nutrients to tissues Respiratory system - gas exchange
What factors affect gas exchange in humans?
The factors that affect gas exchange in humans include the amount of gases in the atmosphere. It also includes temperature, atmospheric pressure and ion concentrations.
If there is insufficient air available to a gas furnace what can occur?
backdrafting <><><> Incomplete brning of the gas, resulting in carbon monoxide being produced.
Why are air spaces near most of the stomata?
provides space for gas exchange, to allow CO2 in and O2 out.
What does a leaf stomata do?
It's a pore found in the epidermis of the leaf and stem of a plant, used for gas exchange.
Where does gas exchange occur in the human respiratory system?
Gas exchange does not occur in the respiratory tract, it occurs in the alveoli.
Where in the respitory tract does gas exchange occur?
In the alveoli
What part of the respiratory tract is not exchange gases?
Gas exchanges occurs in the "alveoli".
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.
Why do gas exchange surfaces need to be moist?
The gases are to dissolve and diffuse through.
How does gas exchange occur when the circulatory and respiratory systems work together?
it occurs through the heart
How does epithelium in each region of the respiratory tract adapted so its form follows its function?
In the upper respiratory tract, you have ciliated cells and mucosal glands that help keep particles out of the lower respiratory tract. Where the very thin type 1 cells faciliate gas exchange.
What is the functinal difference between the conducting airways and the respiratory airways?
The conducting airways transport atmospheric gases down the respiratory tract to the respiring airways, where gas exchange takes place. Gas exchange does not take place in the conducting airway, which contains cartilage, cilia, and mucosal cells.
Which part of the lower respiratory tract is intimately in contact with the cardiovascular system?
The lungs are intimately in contact with the cardiovascular system. The alveoli in the lungs is where gas exchange occurs from the cardiovascular system and the respiratory system.
In frogs what is the path of food through the respiratory system?
In no animal does food pass thought the respiratory system. The respiratory system is used for breathing (gas exchange) not food. The Alimentary Canal or gastrointestinal tract is what is employed for the digestion of food.
Where does gas exchange occur in respiratory system?
AlveoliThe aveoli are small sacks in the lungs. A membrane that lines these sacks allows oxygen to move to the blood and carbon dioxide to move from the blood.Alveoli are particular to the lungs of mammals. Different structures are involved in gas exchange in other vertebrates.Air travels down the trachea, through thr bronchioles towards the terminal end of the respiratory tract, the alveoli. It is In the pulmonary alveolus that gas exchange with the surrounding capillary beds occurs. It is worth noting that alveoli are solely mammalian structures, so resporatory gas exchange occurs differently in other vertebrates and invertebrates.alveoli
What is respiratory gas exchange?
Respiratory gas exchange is the diffusion of both carbon dioxide and oxygen from the capillaries to the alveoli in our lungs, and vice versa.
