Answer: The ETC is the last part of cellular respiration. In the first steps of cellular respiration (glycolysis and Krebs cylce), electrons are freed from glucose derived molecules.  In the ETC the electrons are passed on through a series of proteins in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. The electrons in a sense 'flow' to lower energy levels (see image), they lose energy in the process.

What can white blood cells do that helps them carry out their defensive functions more effectively?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Migrate through blood vessels

Explanation:

White blood cells have the ability to perform diapedesis. Diapedesis refers to the emigration of white blood cells through the blood vessels. During the process, white blood cells move along the endothelium of blood vessels and stick to it. The white blood cells squeeze between the endothelial cells to migrate out of the blood vessels.

In this way, white blood cells can reach the site of infection or move from blood to the interstitial fluid to perform immune functions. The ability to migrate in and out of the blood vessels allows the phagocytic neutrophils and macrophages to arrive at the site of pathogen entry, basophils arrive at the site of inflammation to perform their respective functions.

In this question, we will understand the air path from entering the nasal passages to reaching the alveoli, where gas exchange takes place.

<h3>What is the air's path to the lungs?</h3>

The air penetrates through the nasal passages, passes through the pharynx, larynx and trachea, bronchi, reaching the lungs where it travels through the bronchioles until reaching the alveoli, where gas exchange takes place. The difference between inspired and expired air is in the concentration of oxygen and carbon dioxide.

a) Blood leaving the air sacs is rich in oxygen gas.

b) When exhaling, the breath is rich in carbon dioxide.

c) If you trace the path of air moving through the respiratory system, it would enter through the mouth and nose. It continues through the pharynx, into the larynx, through the tubes and into the trachea and finally reaches the lungs.
