Answer:

Keeping the alveoli open and for constant gas exchange.

Explanation:

After maximum expiration of the air in the lungs, there remains still some air called the residual volume. This is because the alveoli, the smallest sacs in the lungs which take part in the exchange of gases between the lungs and the bloodstream, need to stay inflated and open. This also ensures that the gas exchange is continuous between breaths which is really important. I hope this answer helps.

Can the environment and the heritage be used to describe evolution?
Mrac [35]

Answer:

Yes, the environment and the heritage both plays very crucial role in defining the evolution. But how? let's start it here.

Explanation:

  • As per the Charles Darwin theory of natural selection, organisms that better adapt to changes can survive very well.
  • For example In earlier times, snakes used to have limbs but they are just useless for them and they are not using those limbs so in next generations snakes have vestigial remnants of limbs.
  • Another example we can study here is of mice, such as mice are nocturnal animals so they don't have vision capabilities and over generations they adapt a change due to their predatory nature and came with an affect of better hearing capabilities.

2 Carrying capacity can be defined as a species' average population size in a particular habitat. ... If these needs are not met, the population will decrease until the resource rebounds. Explore carrying capacity with these curated classroom resources.
