<span>If you were to look down at the plane of the solar system from its 'north pole' you would see the planets orbiting the Sun counter clockwise, and rotating on their axis counterclockwise. Except for Venus. Venus would be rotating clockwise as it orbited the Sun counterclockwise. Venus is not alone. The axis of Uranus is inclined so far towards the plane of the solar system that it almost rolls on its side as it orbits the Sun.</span>
My answer will be because these characteristics intervene in the capture and assimilation of the food, having 4 general food behaviors: (1) detritivores, consume a lot of material from the bottom of the water source, (2) herbivores, who consume mostly plant components (filamentous algae and higher plants); (3) periphyton consumers, who are characterized by feeding on microalgae and microinvertebrates and (4) omnivores, in which they indistinctly feed on plant material as an animal of different origin.
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.
