Answer:
The excretory system helps the respiratory system by removing carbon dioxide that is produced during respiration (third option).
Explanation:
The lungs are in charge of the breathing process, being the main organ of the respiratory system. Each lung is considered an excretory organ —belonging to the excretory system— since it is capable of eliminating the carbon dioxide (CO₂) produced by the metabolism during expiration.
As a result of the gaseous exchange, the oxygen entering the lungs through the inhaled air passes into the blood, while the CO₂ is removed from the blood. This CO₂ is removed during expiration, which makes the lungs part of the excretory system.
The other options are not correct because:
- <em>The excretory system does </em><u><em>not introduce more oxygen into the lungs</em></u><em>.
</em>
- <em>The </em><u><em>circulation of blood in and out of the lungs</em></u><em> is a function of the circulatory system.
</em>
- <u><em>Urine is not produced by breathing</em></u><em>.</em>
Answer:
Autoregulation
Explanation:
When the activities of a cell, tissue, organ, or system change automatically due to environmental variation, the homeostatic mechanism that operates is called autoregulation.
Autoregulation is a method of controlling the local blood circulation. It is characterized as an organ's inherent capacity to sustain a standard blood flow, given changes in the pressure of the perfusion.
Mass transit can help reduce air pollution in urban cities because there are fewer cars on the roads, creating less pollution.
Answer:
<u>D) melting and soliditation</u>
Explanation:
Granite is a type of grainy (medium-coarse) igneous rock. These are formed from quartz, alkali feldspar and trace minerals along with plagioclase. Rocks like quartz, form a crystal from magma or as a precipitate near hydrothermal vents.
A type of intrusive igneous rock, granite is formed from its constituents when it molten rock cooled. Larger mineral crystals are associated with slower cooling over time.
