8 0

Answer:

The living organisms must not reach equilibrium in the concentration of oxygen and carbon dioxide so that the Exchange of gases continues . Otherwise respiration and photosynthesis will stop.

Explanation:

  • Gases move along the concentration gradient i.e. from their higher concentration to lower concetration.
  • If living  organisms reach a equilibrium of carbon dioxide and oxygen concentration, then The gases will not move in and out of the cells.
  • This is because at state of equilibrium the concentration of gases on both side become equal and the movement completely ceases.
  • If gaseous exchange in the body stops the process of respiration and photosynthesis in Plants and respiration in animal will completely stop.

What structural component gives arteries the ability to passively adapt to changes in blood pressures that accompany the heartbe
Andrews [41]

Answer: elastic fibers

Explanation:

Elastic fibres are the essential durable component present in mammalian connective tissueand functions to provide proper pulmonary,  cardiovascular and intestinal system structure and function. Their structural function is to provide elastic recoil and resilience for the tissues.

Elastin fibers ahve two main including microfibrils and elastin containing fibrillin play a mechanical and structural role in the arteries, and their important function is to provide the tissues with resilience and elasticity.

Hence, elastic fibers helps arteries to adapt to changes in blood pressures that accompany the heartbeat.

the increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has had an effect on the earths climate. What is that effect?
Phoenix [80]
The increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere creates a greenhouse effect.

To explain this usually some sunlight is reflected back into space while some is absorbed by the earth keeping the planet warm. However the increase in greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide prevent the light from reflecting back into space and this light becomes trapped causing the earth to heat more then it should. You can almost think of the trapped heat from the greenhouse gases as a blanket around the earth trapping the heat in.
