Under normal circumstances, carbon dioxide is excreted from the the body by lungs.

Human beings have a pair of lungs that are spongy in nature and located on the sides of the chest. They are surrounded by pleura which is a layer of thin tissue. The cells in the body require oxygen. The primary function of the lungs is to transport oxygen from the air we breathe to the cells of the body and excrete carbon dioxide received in exchange for oxygen from the cells. Alveoli are present within the lung parenchyma where the exchange of gases takes place with the blood capillaries. Carbon dioxide is then exhaled from the lungs.

The lungs also serve as a means for the absorption and excretion of water and other pharmacological agents and also protect the body from unfavorable substances.

What are the functions of leaves? (Select all that apply.) PLEASE ANSWER ASAP AND GET 25 POINTS
Fantom [35]

The main function of a leaf is to produce food for the plant by photosynthesis. Chlorophyll, the substance that gives plants their characteristic green colour, absorbs light energy. The internal structure of the leaf is protected by the leaf epidermis, which is continuous with the stem epidermis.

Conifer Leaf.  

Microphyll Leaf.  

Megaphyll Leaf.

A leaf is an above-ground plant organ and it is green. Its main functions are photosynthesis and gas exchange. A leaf is often flat, so it absorbs the most light, and thin, so that the sunlight can get to the chloroplasts in the cells. Most leaves have stomata, which open and close.

The two main functions performed by the leaf are photosynthesis and transpiration. Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants make their food from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight.

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Explanation:

The spontenous genrration theory states that living organisms can be spwan without descent of similar organisms; so in other words, it is possible for living creatures could arise from nonliving matter such as water. Similarily in 1676 Van Leeuwenhoek discovered tiny organisms living in his cup of water- the first bacteria observed by man. Pasteur's spontenous generation theory came into the limelight after his most noteable experiment in 1859; in which he boiled meat broth in down ward tipped flasks. It is importnat to note that the tip of the flask (the neck) is what prevented particles to fall freely and instead the bent neck allowed air to travel through the flask- if the flask were to be tilted on its side the particles would seep into the broth and create a cloud within the flask. Pastuer further decided to boil the broth to possible create bacietia. Boiling the broth exposed the contents to air vessels which contained a filter to stop the particles from seeping thorugh into the broth.  What Pastueru concurred from his experminet was that flasks with filters and no filters that did not allow the particles to pass into the medium of the flask, were unsucessful with createing bacteria life. Thus, Pasteur found that noithing  grew in the flasks unless they were broke open, disapproving that living organisms could be spotenously generated within the broth, was instead created from outside the inards of the flask- and were created as spores or dust.

A wounded kitten is bleeding as a result blood vessels at the wound site constrict and platelets rush to the site to form blood
noname [10]
This stage of wound healing is called Homeostasis. The step or stage that comes just after homeostasis is called inflammatory phase. Sometimes homeostasis is not considered as a stage. In that case, <span>inflammatory phase. can be considered as the next stage. I hope the answer has helped you.</span>
