What causes air to enter human lungs? The contraction of the diaphragm increases the volume of the lungs, decreasing the pressure relative to the air outside the body. Smooth muscle in the trachea guides the flow of air into the lungs. Air diffuses into the lungs due to the decreased O2 content relative to the air outside our body. The cilia in the trachea guide the flow of air into the lungs. The decreased concentration of O2 in the lungs decreases the density of that air and denser air outside the body "sinks" into the lungs.
In insects, the respiratory system involves structures called tracheal tubes. How do the tracheal tubes provide oxygen to the insects body?
It may be harmful when people compete to see who can hold their breath the longest underwater. Without oxygen, brain cells 1. cannot make enough ATP 2. make too many enzymes 3. have too much water 4. have too much oxygen
Figure 39.7 Which of the following statements about the mammalian respiratory system is false? When we breathe in, air travels from the pharynx to the trachea. The bronchioles branch into bronchi. Alveolar ducts connect to alveolar sacs. Gas exchange between the lung and blood takes place in the alveolus.
If water passed over the gills of fish in the same direction as blood flow through the capillaries, how would gas exchange be affected? Select all correct choices. More oxygen would diffuse from the water into the fish's bloodstream. Less oxygen would diffuse from the water into the fish's bloodstream. More carbon dioxide would diffuse out of the fish's bloodstream into the water. Less carbon dioxide would diffuse out of the fish's bloodstream into the water. Gas exchange would remain the same, regardless of the direction of water flow.
What controls the movement of the lungs? Describe the flow of air into the lungs. Use the following terms: oral cavity/nasal cavity, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli What gases are being exchanged as we inhale? How do the lungs get rid of all the CO2 they've picked up from the blood? Why do the cells in our body need oxygen? Be specific. How do you think your breathing and lungs adapt when you're exercising?
Animals breathe in air that contains more oxygen than the air they breathe out. Where is oxygen consumed?
Why is an internal location for gas exchange tissues advantageous for terrestrial animals?
In spiders, gas exchange is supplied by (mark all that apply) book lungs book gills Malpighian tubules epidermis tracheae spiracles green glands Home Depot
In cytokine storm, what are three things that happen to reduce gas exchange? swelling increases distance between alveoli & circulatory system oxygen builds up in the alveoli red blood cells invade the alveoli carbon dioxide builds up in the alveoli fluid fills up alveoli scar tissue forms making lungs more flexible hyaline membrane forms making lungs less flexible
Describe the tracheal system of insects. What is the advantage of such a system for a small animal?
1) Electric eels are dependent on air breathing. They take up oxygen from the air that they gulp into their mouths and then blow back out. In what way are their mouths similar to gills? A) They both bring oxygen against its concentration gradient from the lower levels in the water or air to the higher levels in the blood. B) They both have large numbers of capillary beds very close to the skin. C) They both have large numbers of microvilli in their respiratory membrane to provide ATP for active transport of oxygen. D) ALL of these are correct. 2) Which of these accurately describes the buccopharyngeal pumping mechanism teleosts use to breathe? A) The volume of oral cavity is rapidly expanded with the mouth closed and the operculum open. B) The volume of the oral cavity is rapidly compressed with the mouth closed and the operculum open. C) Water from the surroundings is sucked into the gills during inspiration and blown back out during expiration. D) ALL of these are correct.
