In general, how does biodiversity vary across the biosphere?
Tamiku [17]
Life needs energy, water, heat and nutrients. Reduce the availability of one or more of those things and biodiversity generally decreases.

Tropical forests tend to be more diverse than polar ice caps. However, arctic seas tend to be more biologically interesting than the middle of the Sahara. I bet this is what your homework is looking for but it's important to remember there are counterexamples.

In what ways are mammalian lungs adapted for their fuction?​
blsea [12.9K]

Answer: The lungs are well supplied with blood due to lots of capillaries covering the alveoli, constantly maintaining a large diffusion gradient, air is able to pass easily down this gradient due to the alveoli having very thin walls (one cell thick).

                     or

The alveoli are adapted to make gas exchange in lungs happen easily and efficiently. Here are some features of the alveoli that allow this: they give the lungs a really big surface area. they have moist, thin walls (just one cell thick)

Hope this helps......... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!! :D

What is a good surface area to volume ratio of a cell
grin007 [14]

The important point is that the surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger. Thus, if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume.

Hope I helped!
