C I guess?
I think it's wrong
Hi there, the answer would be C (:
Answer:
The <u>PCO₂</u> -carbon dioxide partial pressure- in the alveoli is 40 mm Hg and that of the blood entering the pulmonary capillaries is <u>45 mmHg</u>. This causes <u>carbon dioxide</u> to diffuse down its partial pressure gradient from the blood into the alveoli.
Explanation:
Gas exchange is a physiological process that involves the entry of oxygen into the body and tissues and the exit of carbon dioxide, a product of metabolic reactions.
At the pulmonary level, gas exchange occurs between the alveoli and the alveolar capillary, and the diffusion of gases across the alveolar-capillary barrier is dependent on a pressure gradient due to the partial pressure of gases.
In the case of CO₂ the diffusion goes from where the partial pressure is higher to where it is lower, i.e. <u>from the alveolar capillary, where the PCO₂ is 45 mmHg, to the pulmonary alveolus, where the PCO₂ is 40 mmHg</u>.

Answer:
The Paramecium reproduce asexually. You can tell because there is only one needed to reproduce.
Answer:
The freshwater is hypotonic to the fish
Explanation:
<em>A marine fish is adapted to living in water that is salty.</em>
<em>The fish will not survive because the freshwater would be hypotonic to the body of the fish and as such, excess water would enter its body which will lead to its death. The cells that make up the body of the fish will take-in excess water and lyse, leading to the death of the fish itself.</em>
