Is the insect respiratory system more or less effective compared to the human respiratory system?​

Biology

EleoNora [17]2 years ago

I'd say more effective.

"Insects have a more efficient respiratory system than humans. "

But at the same time insects don't have any lungs they breathe through the help of trachea/tubes/and or holes along their abdomen area.

You need to think about how small, compared to us humans, and insect is. They can take in a lot more oxygen than we can (for their size)

If we were to be able to shrink until we're the same size as an insect, they would be the ones taking in way more oxygen because of the way their system is constructed.

The correct answer is D, white blood cells.
We know that red blood cells deliver nutrients and are not apart of the immune system; platelets are responsible for coagulation, which has nothing to do with the immune system, and plasma is a substance that, again, has nothing to do with immunity. White blood cells are the only things that fight disease (antibodies are white blood cells)!

I hope I helped!

(By nothing I meant very little to none).

svlad2 [7]

Refined grain products like bread, flour tortillas, white rice, cornmeal, crackers etc are enriched with riboflavin, niacin, iron and thiamin.

Enriched grains is finely ground endosperm of the kernel. Enriched grain products are good as a source of iron and four types of vitamin B which includes niacin, thiamin, folic acid and riboflavin and also contains some complex carbohydrates.

Wheat and rice are a staple diet in many regions of the world but excessive polishing and refining the cereals removes the essential nutrients or vitamins which have their own important physiological roles.
