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.
Polio affects the central nervous system and spinal cord. It can cause muscle weakness and paralysis. Polio is a life threatening condition because it can paralyze the muscles that help you breathe.
The polio vaccine is used to help prevent these diseases in children and adults.
Green house gases gives out. Carbon dioxide more than oxygen.... nitrogen stays the same as greenhouses gas does take in or give out
Cohesion. Cohesion is the property of water that attracts other water molecules so they can stick together. Water is sticky because it has positive and negative charge in the oxygen and hydrogen ends that attracts one water molecule to another. Adhesion is also a property of water that attracts it from other substances, making it easy for water to travel upwards through transpiration.
The fossils that provide information on the formation of an oxygen-rich atmosphere are the stromatilites from the Precambrian era. These are layered and columnar fossils consisting mainly of cyanobacteria which were the original life form back then. These bacteria took in carbon dioxide and produced oxygen by photosynthesis as early as 2.5 billion years ago (the earth is about 4.5 billion yrs old).
