How does the respiratory system in birds differ from the mammalian respiratory system?

Biology
1 answer:
DaniilM [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Birds require high levels of oxygen and, therefore, high rates of gas exchange due to flight demands. Avian resting oxygen consumption is high compared to that of mammals and other vertebrates, and this increases even more during the flight.

Explanation:

Compared to mammals, birds have specific adaptations of the respiratory system that result in higher levels of oxygen exchange.

How does crossing over create new gene combinations on each chromosome
nasty-shy [4]

Crossing-over is the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes. It results in new combinations of genes on each chromosome. When cells divide during meiosis, homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed to daughter cells, and different chromosomes segregate independently of each other.
