Answer:
Cleavage is a process in which cell is divided into several parts without increasing in size. There are 4 stages of cleavage i. e. 2-cell, 4-cell, 8-cell and 16 cell stages. 2 cell embryo cleavage occurs after 30 hours of fertilization. 4 cell embryo cleavage occurs after 48 hours. 6 cell embryo cleavage occurs on third day of fertilization. 8 cell embryo cleavage occurs on fourth day of fertilization and more than 100 cells are formed.
Answer:
the alveoli are made of thin squamous (type I) alveolar cells which allows for the quick diffusion carbon dioxide and oxygen.
Explanation:
Diffusion of gases takes place between the alveolar cavity and the blood in the capillaries. Oxygen being more concentrated in the alveoli diffuses across the epithelium of the alveoli and the endothelium of the capillaries into the blood. The epithelial walls of the alveoli are moist and thin thus enhancing the diffusion.
