Out of the following given choices;
a. they increase the amount of energy transferred from the
lungs to the blood
b. they increase the flexibility of the lungs as they expand
during inhalation
c. they increase the volume of the lungs, allowing more
oxygen to be inhaled
d. they increase the surface area of the lungs, allowing the
efficient gas exchange
The answer is D. Due to their microscopic nature, they are numerous in the lungs and are also circular-shaped so as to increase the surface area for gaseous exchange.
Other characteristics of alveoli that increase gas exchange are that they thinned-walled (with only a layer of cells) and moist.
Answer:
In the light-independent reactions or Calvin cycle, the energized electrons from the light-dependent reactions provide the energy to form carbohydrates from carbon dioxide molecules.
Explanation:
After the energy is transferred, the energy carrier molecules return to the light-dependent reactions to obtain more energized electrons.
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one:
(1) viruses only: capsid, envelope with glycoproteins, capsomere (core protein)
<span>(2) host cell only: ribosome
</span><span>(3) both: DNA, RNA, Protein</span>
Answer: Cows put in a pasture of fresh grass will eat it down too a point it would regrow fast.. Unless the pasture is not large enough for the number of cattle. Then they will eat it into the ground and kill it.
Explanation:
Explanation:
The environmental sciences have documented large and worrisome changes in earth systems, from climate change and loss of biodiversity, to changes in hydrological and nutrient cycles and depletion of natural resources. These global environmental changes have potentially large negative consequences for future human well-being, and raise questions about whether global civilization is on a sustainable path or is “consuming too much” by depleting vital natural capital (13). The increased scale of economic activity and the consequent increasing impacts on a finite Earth arises from both major demographic changes—including population growth, shifts in age structure, urbanization, and spatial redistributions through migration and rising per capita income and shifts in consumption patterns, such as increases in meat consumption with rising income (19, 20).
