What process takes place at the boundary between the capillaries and the alveoli?

Biology
1 answer:
Schach [20]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Carbon dioxide enters the alveoli, and oxygen enters the capillaries.

Explanation:

This describes the exchange of gases in the lungs. When blood from the rest of the body gets to the lungs through the capillaries, oxygen flows from the alveoli which are tiny air sacs in the lungs, into the blood in the capillaries.

Carbon dioxide from the blood brought to the lungs will then flow into the alveoli which will then expel it through the nose. This repeated process ensures that the body keeps getting oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide.

Explain what happens in the nervous system when your finger is hurt
vladimir2022 [97]

Tissue damage activates nociceptors or pain receptors in the skin. A signal is sent to the peripheral nerve to the spinal cord where neurotransmitters or chemical messengers are released. It activates other nerves to pass signal to the brain. The signals are relayed to the somatosensory cortex for sensation, frontal cortex for thinking and limbic system for emotional response.

valkas [14]

Answer:

c. monozygotic

Explanation:

Monozygotic twins, though arising primarily from a single zygote and considered genetically identical, will not ever be absolutely the same. Post-fertilization events such as chromosomal mosaicism, skewed X-inactivation and imprinting mechanisms, as well as other epigenetic mechanisms are responsible for the putative differences between monozygotic twins.
