Answer:

This is the site of gaseous exchange

Explanation:

Gaseous exchange is the mechanism by which oxygen is substituted for CO₂ in the body. CO₂ laden blood is carried to the alveoli, which is wrapped with numerous capillary beds and with walls that are thin. When a person inhales, the difference in the partial pressure of the various gases ( oxygen and carbon dioxide) causes them t move down their concentration gradients, with CO₂ diffusion into the lungs from red blood cells, and oxygen binding to the haemoglobin in the red blood cells, after which they are carried to all body tissues for cellular respiration. During exhalation, the CO₂ in the lungs is expelled to the exterior and the process repeats.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Modern invasive species are characterized by broad environmental tolerances, which contribute to their ability to survive during both the transport and establishment phases of invasion. Studies of modern and invasive species have demonstrated that invader species regularly displace native species through higher resource efficiency or competitive ability. A striking feature of the biogeographic pattern is the differential survival of species with large geographic ranges. Species with larger geographic ranges tend, on average, to have broader ecological tolerances than those with small ranges.

What is the name of the oxidized form doesn't have h attached of the electron carrier in photosynthesis?
KiRa [710]
In photosynthesis, an electron carrier of the light cycles is the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate or NADP. This is the oxidized form, because the reduced form of this carrier has the extra H (NADPH). This is somehow related to the electron carrier called nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide or NAD (minus the phosphate).

The outer hair cells respond to sound by slightly tilting and changing length. because of the consequence of this, the action of
serg [7]

Basilar membranes

In an active cochlea, basilar membranes vibrate more strongly than in a dead cochlea. because all of the outer hair cells slant significantly and alter in length in response to sound. In response to basilar membrane changes, outer hair cells swell and contract. The frequency tuning curve is impacted by damage to the outer hair cells.

<h3>What are the function of Basilar membranes?</h3>

The basilar membrane is the inner ear's primary mechanical component. Over its length, it has graded mass and stiffness characteristics, and its vibration patterns separate incoming sound into its component frequencies, which trigger various cochlear areas.

Impact do outer hair cells have on our hearing :

As a nonlinear amplifier that enables the cochlea to detect sounds with great sensitivity and accuracy, outer hair cells (OHCs) play a crucial role in hearing. These distortion products can be monitored as distortion-product otoacoustic emissions as a result of the nonlinear sound processing (DPOAEs)
