The alveolus, or air sac in the lungs, has several key structural adaptations that enhance gas exchange. Its walls are extremely thin, typically one cell thick, to facilitate the rapid diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide. Additionally, the alveoli are surrounded by a network of capillaries, increasing the surface area for gas exchange. The presence of surfactant reduces surface tension, preventing alveolar collapse and ensuring that they remain open for efficient breathing.

How are behavioral adaptations and structural adaptations alike and different?
Behavioural adaptations involve changes in how an individual/species acts in relation to its environment (e.g. hibernation). Structural adapations are changes in the biological make-up of the species (mutuations in its DNA) which change how the species/individual looks or works structurally (e.g. different colourations).Answer 2Both types of adaptations concern the variation and inheritance of heritable traits. The difference between the two is that one type of inherited change affects the 'behaviour' of the organism (ie. the way it moves, where it goes, what it does there, and so on), while the other affects the biology of the organism in a more limited way (ie. the shape of its skeleton, the efficiency of its metabolism, etc).
What structural adaptations would you notice on a cactus?
Some structural adaptations of cacti include reduced leaves or spines for water conservation, a thick stem for storing water, a shallow but extensive root system to quickly absorb water after rain, and a waxy outer layer to prevent water loss.
Can adaptations only be physical?
No, adaptations can also be behavioral, physiological, or anatomical in nature. Organisms can adjust their behavior or internal processes in response to environmental changes to increase their chances of survival and reproduction.
