The four important characteristics of respiratory surface are:
1. Thin walls
2. Moisture
3. Large surface area
4. Blood supply
Respiratory system or respiratory tract is divided into upper and lower tract. Upper respiratory tract includes nose and its cavities, sinuses, pharynx and the part of the larynx. Lower respiratory tract consists of the trachea, bronchi, bronchioles and the alveoli.
Alveoli are the ends of the respiratory tract the smallest units in it. Alveoli are small folded air sacs that are branching off from alveolar ducts and providing an extremely large surface area for the gas exchange. Gas exchange occurs thanks to small blood vessels – capillaries that surround alveoli and it occurs via the process of diffusion.
So, respiratory surface is thin membrane also known as the blood–air barrier that consists of the alveolar epithelial cells, their basement membranes and the endothelial cells of the alveolar capillaries.
False . Genetic mutations are random
D would be the answer to this question
Answer:
Resistance bacteria survive in greater numbers and pass the trait to their offspring
Explanation:
Antibiotics are chemicals which are used in the treatment of bacterial infections. The bacteria sometimes have some form of immunity or resistance to a particular antibiotic due to a host of underlying factors.
Once resistance appears in a bacterial population, it spreads rapidly. The trait of immunity or resistance to such antibiotic is then passed as a trait from one generation to another.
True. it starts off simple then you move into details
