Answer: The following statements <em>comparing respiration in fish and in mammals</em> is correct:
- The movement of the respiratory medium in mammals is bidirectional, but in fish it is unidirectional.
Explanation:
<u>Breathing </u>is the process by which living beings <em>exchange gases</em> with the external environment. It consists of the <u>entry of oxygen</u> into the body of a living being and the <u>exit of carbon dioxide</u> from it .
Active ventilation occurs if the animal produces the currents (of air or water) that flow to and from its respiratory membranes. It can be :
- Unidirectional. (air or water is pumped onto the respiratory membrane in only one direction).
- Bidirectional. (air or water is transported to the respiratory membrane and moves away from it through the same route like in the mammals).
photosynthesis produces oxygen and glucose as the end products whereby the glucose is used as food by plants and oxygen as a byproduct.
cellular respiration produces water and carbon dioxide and the end products and by products where by energy is stored
I believe the answer is <span>c. absorption
</span>The phase of pharmacokinetic that happens in the intestine is when the drug absorbed. A person with old age will have lower intestine motility. This will increase the transit time which will increase the amount of drug absorbed.
Age could also influence others pharmacokinetic parameter(<span>excretion, distribution, metabolism) but it is related with another organ, not intestine.</span>
A scientific theory changes when there is more information available about what the theory covers.
