Answer:
Oxygen molecules in the tissues of the lung diffuse into the blood because the concentration of oxygen in the lung's tissues is more than the concentration of oxygen in the blood.
Explanation:
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from the region of higher concentration of the molecule to the region of lower concentration of the same molecule. Molecules in diffusion move <em>downward the concentration</em> <em>gradient</em> created by difference in concentration between two regions until an <em>equilibrium (equal concentration in the two regions)</em> is established.
Oxygen molecules diffuse into the tissues of the lung when an organism breathes-in during the process of breathing. The molecules in the now oxygen-rich tissues eventually start diffusing into the blood in the lung because the blood passing through the lung is always de-oxygenated or has lower oxygen concentration compared to the tissues of the lung.
Oxygenated blood moves into the heart, pumps round the body by the heart, gets depleted of oxygen and eventually find its way back to the lung where the process is repeated.
Diffusion of oxygen from the tissues of the lung into the blood will keep happening as long as oxygen keeps getting dissolved into the lung's tissues and an equilibrium is yet to be established between the tissues and the blood.
Answer:
The thoracic duct: It begins near the lower part of the spine and collects lymph from the pelvis, abdomen, and lower chest.
Explanation:
Answer:
A) Light pollution both attracts and repels migratory birds
In addition to the many hazards that exist in urban areas, cities typically lack the food resources and cover that birds need during migration or when raising their young. ... Darkening skies at night during migration season makes it easier for birds to navigate.
Explanation:
Migration carries high costs in predation and mortality, including from hunting by humans, and is driven primarily by availability of food. It occurs mainly in the northern hemisphere, where birds are funneled on to specific routes by natural barriers such as the Mediterranean Sea or the Caribbean Sea.
Answer: D. Acid from abandoned mines
Explanation:
Point source pollution can be define as the pollution that can be caused by a pollutant whose source of origin is known. As the source of origin is known the path of the pollutant can be traced back to it's origin hence, the pollution can be controlled.
Among the options given, D. Acid from abandoned mines. is the correct option this is because of the fact that the source of origin of the pollutant is known that is abandoned mines.
Answer:
It's 3!
Explanation:
There must be genetic differences so the best fitted organisms will survive. If they were all the same then no one would be best fitted and Natural Selection wouldn't be able to occur
It's not 1 because a food shortage isn't required, there's always competition for food sources
It's not 2 because there doesn't need to be a change in the environment for natural selection, just for evolution.
And it can't be 4 if 1 and 2 are wrong!
Hope this helped!
