Why do skin divers need oxygen cylinders?

Because lungs are not adapted to absorb oxygen from the water.


Why cant people breathe in water?

According to many scientists and researches, people cannot breathe in water because water molecules cannot be absorbed by human lungs. Humans have lungs that do not have enough surface area to absorb enough oxygen from water. Our lungs are more much more adapted to air than water.


What structure is adapted for the diffusion of gases?

The lungs have been adapted especially for making gas exchange more efficient. They are made up of clusters of alveoli, which are tiny air sacs with large surface areas, and are kept moist. They also have a rich blood supply, which maintains a concentration gradient in both directions. Carbon dioxide constantly being removed from the blood and oxygen constantly entering the lungs means that gas exchange happens at the highest concentration gradients to make it rapid and effective.


How are the lungs adapted to their function?

The lungs are adapted for their function of gas exchange by having a large surface area provided by tiny air sacs called alveoli, where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged with the blood. This large surface area allows for efficient diffusion of gases. Additionally, the lungs are highly vascularized, meaning they have an extensive network of blood vessels to transport gases between the lungs and the rest of the body.


Rabbit have a lungs or gills?

Rabbits, like all mammals, have lungs, not gills. Lungs are the respiratory organs of mammals, including rabbits, and they are adapted for breathing air. Gills, on the other hand, are the respiratory organs of aquatic animals such as fish and some amphibians. Gills are specialized for extracting oxygen from water, whereas lungs are designed for extracting oxygen from the air. Rabbits breathe by inhaling air through their nostrils, which then passes into their lungs, where oxygen is exchanged with carbon dioxide in the blood.
