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.

Answer:

The correct answer is - Roots allow plants to obtain water and nutrients, while shoots allow plants to obtain gases and sunlight.

Explanation:

Water is also absorbed by the roots that are used in the various processes such as transpiration and photosynthesis.

The shoot includes stem and leaves and responsible for the exchange of gases, particularly taking in carbon dioxide and removes oxygen with help of stomata. These also absorbs sunlight with help of chlorophyll present on the leaves.

dusya [7]

Answer:

The phenomenon of unequal separation in meiosis is called nondisjunction. If nondisjunction causes a missing chromosome in a haploid gamete, the diploid zygote it forms with another gamete will contain only one copy of that chromosome from the other parent, a condition known as monosomy. I think sorry if wrong ;)
