First, in the lungs are150 a million alveoli (very large surface area) which mean more oxygen is taken in.

First of all, humans have their two lungs to breathe, which are covered in over 150 million alveoli, meaning a very, very large surface area, which means more oxygen is taken in.

Second of all, the alveoli are covered in capillaries, meaning that gas exchanges happen extraordinarily fast - with each breath.

So, yes, they add up to create a large surface area and are covered in capillaries.

A phylogenetic tree based on morphology can be constructed using the presence or lack of characteristics. In this illustration, all aliens except the outgroup possess a spring tail, all aliens possess a fourth eye, two aliens possess two tails, and one alien has a grasping hand. The evolutionary relationships between these organisms can be hypothesized using these traits.

Aliens:

  • We can determine whether the following traits are present in the remaining aliens by using the group of aliens with the tail stalk as our test group.
  • Out group: a group that is maintained apart from the clade but is yet connected to it.
  • If we provide these aliens alphabets for ease of understanding, then aliens will be like in order.
  • We can use the group of aliens with the tail stalk as our test group to see if the following characteristics are present in the remaining aliens.
  • A group that is kept separate from the clade while yet being affiliated with it is known as an out group.
  • The aliens will appear to be in order if we give them alphabets for simplicity.
