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.

Tom [10]

Answer:

Mechanical Isolation

A snail with a flat disc-like shell

will not be able to mate with a

snail having a conical shell.

The reproductive organs of

male bush babies do not

match with the reproductive

organs of females of other

bush baby species

Behavioral Isolation

The mating call of a cricket is not

recognized by a cricket of other

species.

The signals sent by a male firefly

are not recognized by the female

firefly of other species.

Explanation:

Mechanical isolation occurs in the scenario where two organisms are willing to mate but cannot do so due to the physical challenges. As in the case of snail a flat disk and a conical disk snail are willing to mate but physical barriers restrict them in doing so.

The same case is with the male and female bush babies where the difference in reproductive organs does not allow them to mate.  

Behavioral isolation represents a scenario where two organisms are unaware of mating rituals, season, pattern or signals of each other and hence cannot mate.  

For example – male and female cricket do not recognize the mating call of each other. Likewise male and female firefly is also not able to understand each other’s mating signal.

kifflom [539]

Answer:

The species will eventually become extinct.

Explanation:

If a species habitat is constantly being reduced and destroyed by a numberous number of things such as human construction, then the species will reduce and eventually go extinct. This is due to the fact that a species habitat is everything to them, it gives them a place to feel comfortable and provides them with food and other neccesities. The species would eventually become extinct is the place they need to leave which is their habitat is constantly being destroyed day by day.
