What else can I help you with?
What is the serous fluid reduces surface tension?
Surfactants, which are molecules that lower surface tension, can be found in serous fluid. These molecules help prevent alveoli in the lungs from collapsing by reducing the surface tension of the fluid lining the alveoli.
How do alveoli and capillaries help to get oxygen?
The alveoli is the point where the waste product of respiration (carbon dioxide) and oxygen are diffused into or out of the blood. Oxygen diffuses into the blood stream and are carried to the heart and carbon dioxide is diffused out of the lungs and expired. The alveoli have moist walls and are close to the capillaries which speeds up the process.
Do plants grow with ginger ale?
No gingir ale does not help. What can help is nice moist soil and a good amount of sun.
What is lining of the nose?
the septum
How does the structure of the alveoli help do it jobs?
one feature is that an alveoli has a wide surface area. If you know any other features then add them!
What three important physical features does the gas exchange membrane in the lungs need to have to be efficient?
O2 and CO2 are carried by the blood. Gases moves by diffusion that is, they move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. The lining of the alveoli most be moist to help gases diffuse.
How does 300 million alveoli help gaseous exchange?
because it does
What is a septal cell?
it is a pale cell that in the septa in lungs between pulmanory alveoli which keep alveoli away from collaposing
What are the structures you find inside the lungs that help us breathe?
alveoli
How thin walls help the alveoli?
It allows for rapid diffusion of gasses.
What are the characteristics of the alveoli that help with its function?
gas exchange is the intake of the oxygen and the let out of the carbon dioxide
What characteristics of the alveoli help oxugen to diffuse into the blood capillaries easily?
The alveoli have several key characteristics that facilitate the easy diffusion of oxygen into the blood capillaries. They possess a large surface area due to their numerous tiny sacs, which increases the area available for gas exchange. Additionally, the alveolar walls are extremely thin (only one cell layer thick), minimizing the distance oxygen must travel to reach the capillaries. Finally, the moist environment within the alveoli helps dissolve oxygen, further aiding its diffusion into the bloodstream.
