What else can I help you with?
Which is more efficient lungs or gills?
Gills are more efficient at obtaining oxygen, but there is much more oxygen in air to breath through the lungs.
Amphibian lungs don't have to be as efficient as gills because?
Amphibian lungs do not have to be as efficient as gills because there is much more oxygen in air than in water.
If you have 3 liters of air in your lungs and 2 tenths of that is oxygen how many milliliters of oxygen are in your lungs?
If you have 3 liters of air in your lungs and 2 tenths of that is oxygen, how many milliliters of oxygen are in your lungs?
What is the of air into and out of your lungs?
oxygen goes into your lungs and then co2 comes out when mixed with a substance in your lungs.
Does oxygen go to our lungs?
Yes, when we breathe in, oxygen from the air enters our lungs. This oxygen is then absorbed into the bloodstream through tiny air sacs in the lungs called alveoli.
What absorbes oxygen from the air?
the aveoli in the Lungs
Why do lungs work more efficiently than gills in extracting oxygen from air?
Lungs work more efficiently than gills in extracting oxygen from air because they have a larger surface area for gas exchange and a more complex structure that allows for a more efficient transfer of oxygen into the bloodstream. Additionally, the respiratory system in mammals is more adapted to extracting oxygen from the air, which is a richer source of oxygen compared to water.
What is the air that is drawn into the lungs?
Oxygen
Where do lungs get oxygen?
Lungs get oxygen from the air that is inhaled through the respiratory system. Oxygen molecules in the air are transferred from the alveoli in the lungs into the bloodstream, where they are carried to cells throughout the body.
Where does oxygen go once it gets into the lungs?
the oxygen goes to the air sacs inside of the lungs.
Why air tubes in lungs branch again and again?
The branching of air tubes in the lungs allows for the efficient distribution of air to all parts of the lungs, ensuring that oxygen can reach the smallest air sacs where gas exchange occurs. This branching pattern increases the surface area available for gas exchange and allows for a greater volume of air to be accommodated in the lungs.
How lungs get oxygen?
Oxygen enters the lungs when we inhale air. It travels down the airways and reaches the alveoli, tiny air sacs in the lungs where gas exchange occurs. Oxygen from the air diffuses into the bloodstream through the alveolar walls and is then carried to the rest of the body.
