It's considered to be an advantage to have lungs with increased capacity, because with increased capacity

Biology

matrenka [14]3 years ago

<span>Having more lung capacity is advantageous because the lungs can expand more. More air in the lungs will fill all the alveoli (air sacs in the lungs) and allow more oxygen to enter the bloodstream via the capillaries that surround the air sacs. Excess waste (such as carbon dioxide) is also transferred from the blood to the air to be exhaled. As lungs fill, more gas exchange can occur.</span>

Which best describes the cell theory
Neko [114]
Each cell is alive even if it is part of a multi celled body, and all living organisms consist of one or more cells. Also, cells reproduce by dividing so it follows that all existing cells must have arisen by division of other cells. As a cell divides it passes it hereditary material- its DNA- to offspring.

Answer:

Meiosis and Genetic Variation.

Explanation:

When homologous chromosomes form pairs during prophase I of meiosis I, crossing-over can occur. Crossing-over is the exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes. It results in new combinations of genes on each chromosome.

When cells divide during meiosis, homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed during anaphase I, separating and segregating independently of each other. This is called independent assortment. It results in gametes that have unique combinations of chromosomes.

In sexual reproduction, two gametes unite to produce an offspring. But which two of the millions of possible gametes will it be? This is likely to be a matter of chance. It is obviously another source of genetic variation in offspring. This is known as random fertilization.
