In what ways are mammalian lungs adapted for their fuction?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer: The lungs are well supplied with blood due to lots of capillaries covering the alveoli, constantly maintaining a large diffusion gradient, air is able to pass easily down this gradient due to the alveoli having very thin walls (one cell thick).

The alveoli are adapted to make gas exchange in lungs happen easily and efficiently. Here are some features of the alveoli that allow this: they give the lungs a really big surface area. they have moist, thin walls (just one cell thick)

Hope this helps......... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!! :D

Answer:

This question appears incomplete

Explanation:

This question appears incomplete. However, <u>the cell organelle involved in transportation of molecules in the cell is the </u><u>cell membrane</u>. This cell membrane can be said to be cause of several forms of transportation in and out of the cell - this is because the membrane is a selective barrier. While some substances/molecules move through diffusion by moving with the concentration gradient (as in the case of passive transport, others move against the concentration gradient requiring energy to cause the transportation (as in the case of active transport).
