Answer:
e. water loss through evaporation across the respiratory surface can be minimized
Explanation:
<em>Exchange of gases, otherwise known as respiration is an important process in living organisms during which food material within the body is broken down to unlock their energies for the functioning of living organisms.</em>
During gaseous exchange, oxygen gas diffuses into respiratory tissues and dissolves on respiratory surfaces while carbon dioxide diffuses in the other direction.
Respiratory surfaces are usually thin walled with moist inner surfaces that enables the dissolution of gases. Depending on the atmospheric temperature, respiratory surfaces in terrestrial organisms are at varying risks of losing moisture to the atmosphere due to evaporation.
In aquatic organisms however, evaporation from respiratory surfaces is minimized as the immediate environment is water.
Options a to d are not entirely true about water and respiration.
The correct option is e.

<span> Amoebic dysentery is caused by the amoeba Entamoeba histolytica. This protozoan exists in nature in the cyst form and is transmitted by contaminated food and water. In patients, the amoebas revert to trophozoites and invade the intestinal lining.

The body's immune system thinks what he/she is eating or inhaling is a pathogen. The immune system sends white blood cells to attack. This triggers an allergic reaction.
For example: I am allergic to asparagus (I'm not joking, I really am) and walnuts. Anytime I eat one of those, my body's immune system thinks it's a pathogen for some reason and attacks and triggers an allergic reaction in me. This makes my breathing hard and makes it really itchy. Good thing it's not that severe so I can eat some if I want, but sometimes allergic reactions could cause hospitalization or death.
Answer:
D. Ribosomes
Explanation:
Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) bears ribosomes on it surface which give it granular apperance and they are the site of protein synthesis.
