When we breathe in, oxygen enters our lungs and enters small sacs in our lungs called the alveoli. In the alveoli, the oxygen diffuses INTO the bloodstream through small blood vessels, called capillaries, that surround these alveoli. The oxygen is now in our bloodstream instead of our lungs and is used in cell respiration etc.
Oppositely, carbon dioxide is diffused FROM the bloodstream TO the alveoli, also through these capillaries. The carbon dioxide is now in the lungs instead of the bloodstream and when you breathe out, the carbon dioxide is breathed out out of your lungs.
Hope this helped, even if it helped a tiny bit. :)
Hello there

Answer:
pancreas: secretes digestive enzymes into the small intestine
esophagus: the place where peristalsis takes place
small intestine: area of the digestive tract where most nuturients are absorbed
stomach: area of the digestive tract that follows the esophagus
large intestine: area of the digestive tract where mostly water is absorbed
Explanation:
peristalsis: so the food can move down towards your stomach, independently of gravity
pancreas: helps your stomach become the ultimate weapon to destroy anything that gets in there with its enzymes
small intestine: it is really really long -> more time to absorb nutrients
large intestine: like a farm of bacteria, the most exotic things that somehow made it through all the way here are finally destroyed -> also, water absorbtion: your body wants to retain as much as possible, this is how and where stool formation takes place
If two homozygous plants with contrasting traits are crossed, the
expected genotypes for the offspring will be heterozygous. The
dominant trait would be expressed, but they'd be carriers for the
recessive trait.
