Gas Exchange and Transport Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged across the walls of alveoli and capillaries. Chemical propert

ies of blood and red blood cells allow for efficient transport of gases throughout the body.Carbon dioxide and oxygen are exchanged across capillary and alveolus walls.Hemoglobin binds with and transports oxygen that diffuses from alveoli to capillaries. It also increases the efficiency of gas exchange.Carbon dioxide is transported in the blood in three ways. Most combines with water and forms carbonic acid. Some dissolves in plasma. Some binds to hemoglobin and proteins in plasma.
For Questions 2-7, complete each statement by writing the correct word or words.

Bacteria convert atmospheric nitrogen to which of the following in the process of nitrogen fixation?
DiKsa [7]

Q1) Bacteria are capable of converting atmospheric N in the form of N2 gas to NH3. this process is known as nitrogen fixation. N2 in the atmospheric form is not usable by other organisms, therefore specialised bacteria such as Azetobacter species are capable of carrying out this conversion from N2 gas into NH3 form that can be used by other organisms 


Q2) Condensation.

Water in the gaseous state or known as vapour state converted to liquid state, process is known as condensation. in condensation the particles in water become more tightly packed and heat energy is removed from these particles reducing their kinetic energy thus becoming liquid state


Q3) 

Transpiration declines

Deforestation is when the number of trees and plants have been cut down therefore numbers have reduced drastically, transpiration is the process in which water is transported through the plant and lost to the environment through evaporation. When the trees and plants have reduced the water lost by way of transpiration is also reduced. This impacts the water cycle as the number of water being cycled in the environment is lesser now.


Q4) the sun

sun is the major source of energy that facilitates the recycling of water in the water cycle. The sun causes water to be evaporated from water bodies and converted to water vapour. This water vapour is then recycled.


Q5) Plants can’t use Nitrogen in the form of N2

N is an essential element needed by plants, however plants cannot use up the atmospheric N2 gas. therefore bacteria are capable of nitrogen fixation that converts N2 gas into forms that can be used up and absorbed by the plants from soil.

Plants do not have a digestive system like us.why do they not need a digestive system
umka2103 [35]
All they need for their living is carbondioxide in air ,water and some nutrients .so basically their roots are responsible for collection of water which contains life giving nutrients .but we take food as a solid substance which hasto be converted into energy
