Answer:

Net Primary Production = Gross Primary Production - Respiration

Explanation:

  1. <u>Gross Primary Production (GPP)</u> = The total amount of chemical energy that is expressed as carbon biomass created by primary producers in unit time.
  2. <u>Respiration (R)</u> = A fraction of fixed amount of energy that is used by primary producers for the cellular respiration and maintenance of existing tissues.
  3. <u>Net Primary Production (NPP)</u> = The remaining amount of the fixed energy.

Therefore, the equation that shows the relationship between gross and net primary production is,

<em>Net Primary Production (NPP) = Gross Primary Production (GPP) - Respiration (R)</em>

Net primary production is the amount of energy that remains behind after the consumption of some fraction of energy in respiration from the gross primary production.

Answer/Explanation:

In humans, we breathe in oxygen via the respiratory system. The oxygen enters the lungs. The air sacs in the lungs - the alveoli - are the site of gas exchange in the lungs and are where the circulatory and respiratory systems interact.

The alveoli take in the oxygen, where it diffuses into the capillaries (circulatory system). Blood, which passes through the capillaries takes this oxygen to all the cells in the body. Oxygen binds to haemoglobin in red blood cells, which transport it around the body.

Additionally, blood also transports carbon dioxide back to the alveoli of the lungs, where it diffuses into the lungs and is expelled when we breathe out
