1. The branches of the bronchial tree ultimately ends at the alveoli.
Bronchial tree consist of bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoli. Bronchi are formed as the lower part of the trachea divides into two tubes. Bronchioles are smaller tube divisions of the bronchi. It walls contain smooth muscle and no cartilage. Alveoli are tiny ends of the alveolar ducts, which functions as the site for gaseous exchange.
2. Blood flows from the left atrium; mitral (bicuspid valves), the left ventricle, aortic valve, aorta, veins and heart, right side of the heart, superior and inferior vena cavae, right atrium, tricuspid valve, right ventricle, pulmonary valve, pulmonary trunk, pulmonary artery, lungs, pulmonary veins, then back to the heart...
3. Arteries and the veins differ in structures and they way they functions; Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body (except pulmonary artery) while veins carry deoxygenated blood back from the body to the heart (except pulmonary veins). A structural differences includes; the veins contain valves while arteries lack. Arteries have narrow lumen while veins have wide lumen. Lastly, blood carried by veins has higher pressure compared to blood carried in vessels.
4. The circulatory and respiratory systems work together to circulate blood and oxygen throughout the body. Air moves in and out of the lungs through the trachea, bronchi, and the bronchioles. Blood moves in and out of the lungs throgh the pulmonary arteries and veins that connect to the heart.
5. The cartilage rings of the trachea
They are strong but flexible tissues which support the trachea or the windpipe while still allowing it to move and flex during breathing. Additionally these cartilage rings are C-shaped to provide room for the esophagus, which lies along the back side of the trachea.
6. Functions of the larynx includes;
To protect the airway from choking on material in the throat
to regulate the flow of air into our lungs
The production of sounds used for speech
Larynx is part of the respiratory system and is located between the pharynx and the trachea. Humans use larynx to breathe, talk and swallow.
7. Structures that make up the pathway of air through the respiratory system starting with the external nares; We start with; External nares, nasal cavity, internal nares, nasopharynx, laryngopharynx,oropharynx, larynx, trachea, primary bronchus, secondary bronchus, tertiary bronchus, bronchiole, terminal bronchiole, respiratory bronchiole, alveolar duct, alveolar sac and alveolus.
Answer:
A. The ash would increase the albedo and decrease the global temperature
Explanation:
The volcanoes can have a big impact on the global temperature. If the volcanic eruption is big enough, and the volcanoes manages to propel very large amount of ash in the atmosphere, the whole planet will feel the effect. The ash will make a layer in the atmosphere around the planet. This layer will increase the albedo of the atmosphere, as the ash will block big portion of the sunlight. That will result in much less sunlight reaching the surface of the Earth, thus in sharp decrease in the global temperatures.
The answer is D
One way to remember this is when you are building a bridge there is one piece right in the middle that keeps the whole thing from collapsing that is called the key-stone. If a keystone species goes extinct then the rest of the ecosystem will crumble around it.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Pluto is not the smallest orbiting body (which includes comets, asteroids, and moons), pluto is the smallest orbiting planet
All planets have an elliptical orbit, not just pluto
Pluto has several moons
Therefore, the right answer is C
