What else can I help you with?
What provides a large surface area for gas exchange?
Your lungs provide a very large surface area for gas exchange.
What happens if the surface area of the respiratory membrane decrease in gas exchange?
A decrease in the surface area of the respiratory membrane will result in a decrease in gas exchange.
Where is the respiratory surface?
A respiratory surface is located anywhere in an animal or human being where gas exchange occurs. A respiratory surface is located anywhere in an animal or human being where gas exchange occurs.
How is surface area important to gas exchange?
Gas exchange is important as it is the transfer of oxygen from the surroundings to individual cells in the body, required by the cells for respiration. This process produces energy, essential for the organisms survival. A waste product of respiration is carbon dioxide, which if not removed from the body by gas exchange, will be harmful.
What provide the greatest surface area for gas exchange?
Alveoli in the lungs provide the greatest surface area for gas exchange in the body. They are tiny air sacs that are surrounded by capillaries where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged during respiration. The numerous alveoli increase the total surface area available for this gas exchange process.
The feathery structure of gills aid in the function of gas exchange by?
it increases surface area for gas exchange which means that more oxygen is absorbed.
What are respiratory surfaces?
Respiratory surface is the surface where respiratory gas exchange in an animal. Ex-lungs
Why are the bronchiole walls folded?
To increase surface area for gas exchange.
Which organism has a gas exchange surface adapted for a terrestrial environment?
earthworms.
Why is water always lost from the gas exchange surface?
Water is lost from the gas exchange surface of terrestrial organisms because gases must be exchanged with air. Terrestrial organisms have a high water potential, therefore when the gas exchange occurs water will be lost.
Where does Gas exchange take place in the hydra?
It is simpie diffusion through body surface
The efficiency of gas exchange in the lungs of vertebrates is greater because of what?
The efficiency of gas exchange in the lungs of vertebrates is greater because it increases the lungs' internal surface area.
