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.

Which microscope uses a series of lenses to magnify an object in steps? electron microscope simple microscope compound light mic
seropon [69]

<u>Answer:</u>

Compound light microsocope.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The compound light microscope utilises sets of lens to get bigger view of the object in steps. It is made up of more that two lens and has its own source of light.

So as to find out the amplification while reviewing  a picture with a compound light magnifying lens, take the intensity of the target focal point which is at 4x, 10x or 40x and increase it by the intensity of the eyepiece which is regularly 10x.

In this way, a 10x eyepiece utilized with a 40X target focal point, will create an amplification of 400X. The unaided eye would now be able to see the example at an amplification multiple times more noteworthy thus minuscule subtleties are uncovered.

Adenosine triphosphate is considered a high-energy compound. but how is that energy transferred to the cellular machinery?
egoroff_w [7]
Adenosine triphosphate is considered a high-energy compound. The energy of this compound is transferred to the cellular machinery by  the conversion of ATP to ADP. Along with this conversion is the release of energy which is used by the cells. ATP contains an ordered carbon structure which is the backbone of the compound and also it contains the triphosphate part which is the most important region of the compound. These phosphorus groups are being connected by oxygen atoms and they have oxygen atoms on the side. These atoms of oxygen has a negative charge which would cause for them to repel and would want to be away from each other. Removing even just one would release about 7.3 kcal of energy per mole of ATP.
