Why does the transfer of carbon and oxygen take place

Biology
2 answers:
Elza [17]3 years ago
5 0

The transfer of the  carbon-dioxide and oxygen occurs during the process of the respiration. The oxygen from the air we breathe in our lungs is diffused into the blood present in the capillaries surrounding the alveloi of the lungs. The carbon-dioxide is diffused into the lungs, which is then breathed out. This transfer of the gases is necessary as the oxygen is required by the body to break down the fatty acids and other components in order to release energy for different processes of the body. The carbon-dioxide released after the generation of the energy is eliminated from the body by this exchange.

The exchange takes place in the millions of alveoli in the lungs and the capillaries that envelope them.

Which of the following statements best provides evidence of the big bang theory?
Oxana [17]

Answer: D. Galaxies show a red shift, indicating they are moving away from each other.

Explanation:

Galaxies seem to show a red shift which indicates that the galaxies are moving away from each other. This provides evidence for the Big Bang theory because the theory posits galaxies will keep moving away from each other.

This is because when an explosion happens, matter moves away from the point where the explosion happened. If the Big Bang happened therefore, galaxies will move away from the source which is why galaxies are moving away from each other.
