External respiration (correct answer) involves the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide within the environment.
The exchange of wastes through the skin is just called excretion by sweating.
There is no exchange of nutrients that occur in the lungs but rather absorption of nutrients is the function of the gastrointestinal tract.
The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide within the cell is called cellular respiration and involves carrying oxygen from the blood to the cell then the cell uses it as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain. The metabolic wastes of the cell, primarily carbon dioxide, goes now to the bloodstream to be exchanged for oxygen in the lungs.
Answer:
The correct answer is option c. "a set of reactions that release energy that can be used to drive cellular work".
Explanation:
Catabolism is a part of metabolism at which molecules are broken down into smaller units in order to release energy that could be used in other reactions that drive cellular work. A catabolic pathway follows catabolism criteria. Catabolic pathways are the opposite of anabolic pathways, at which large molecules are synthesized with the requirement of external energy supply.
Root hair cells are adapted for taking up water and mineral ions by having a large surface area to increase the rate of absorption. They also contain lots of mitochondria , which release energy from glucose during respiration in order to provide the energy needed for active transport.
Hope this helps, have a nice day!:)
