The diffusion time of the red blood cell to take oxygen through the membrane is 25uS.
The small capillaries in the lungs are in close contact and it takes a red blood cell 0.5 seconds to squeeze through the capillary.
The diffusion time for the oxygen across the 1 um thick membrane separating the air is given by,
t = x²/2D
Where,
t is the diffusion time,
x is the thickness of the membrane,
D is the diffusion coefficient.
Putting values,
t = (1 x 10⁻⁹)²/2 x 2 x 10⁻¹¹
t = 10⁻⁷/4
t = 25 x 10⁻⁹ seconds.
t = 25 uS.
so, the diffusion time is 25uS.

-5- is the correct answer
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the intercepts, that is where the graph crosses the x and y axes.
• Let x = 0, in the equation for y-intercept
• Let y = 0, in the equation for x-intercept
x = 0 : 0 + y = - 9 ⇒ y = - 9 ⇒ (0, - 9 ) ← y- intercept
y = 0 : 8x + 0 = - 9 ⇒ x = -
⇒ ( -
, 0) ← x- intercept
Answer:
x-8<-15
