D. The measure of how stretched out an ellipse is, is referred to as <u>eccentricity.</u>

<h3>What is eccentricity of ellipse?</h3>

Eccentricity for an ellipse is the ratio of the length of the semimajor axis (a) to the distance (c )between the ellipse's center and each focus.

e = c/a

The greatest ellipse has the smallest eccentricity, whereas the perfect circle has the maximum eccentricity. The eccentricity of an ellipse e, which ranges from 0 (the limiting case of a circle) to 1 (the length of the ellipse), is used to determine how long it is (the limiting case of infinite elongation, no longer an ellipse but a parabola). Because the distance from the fixed point on the plane has a constant ratio that is less than the distance from the fixed line on the plane, the eccentricity of an ellipse ranges from 0 to 1.

Describe what happens to the air in the lungs when we breathe. What happens to the concentration of
Otrada [13]

When we breathe in, oxygen enters our lungs and enters small sacs in our lungs called the alveoli. In the alveoli, the oxygen diffuses INTO the bloodstream through small blood vessels, called capillaries, that surround these alveoli. The oxygen is now in our bloodstream instead of our lungs and is used in cell respiration etc.

Oppositely, carbon dioxide is diffused FROM the bloodstream TO the alveoli, also through these capillaries. The carbon dioxide is now in the lungs instead of the bloodstream and when you breathe out, the carbon dioxide is breathed out out of your lungs.

Hope this helped, even if it helped a tiny bit. :)
