The primary job of the upper respiratory tract is to permit gaseous exchange to take place.

Law Incorporation [45]2 years ago

It depends on the context; it does allow gas exchange to occur, however gas exchange occurs in the capillaries of the alveoli.

Note:

<em>The upper airway not only provides a passage for air to be breathed in and out of the lungs, but it also heats, humidifies and filters the air and is involved in cough, swallowing and speech. Air goes to the lungs where gas exchange will occur. </em>

If you are still confused try looking up gas exchange diagrams for more information.

TLDR: Disagree; it does allow oxygen to flow into the lungs as the upper respiratory tract is a passageway to the lungs. However, the upper respiratory tract is NOT where gas exchange occurs because the lower respiratory tract holds the lungs which allow for gas exchange.

dedylja [7]

Answer:

The answer is C- Form Utility

Explanation:

Form Utility is an economic concept which refers to how well a product or service meets the customer's needs. It identifies the value obtained by consumers from products or services that are designed or packaged in the most suitably convenient way for them. The packaging and presentation of the products or service is more valuable to the customer if it matches the customer's actual needs. A proper display can create a form utility in itself.

Emporium is packaging the Santino's sandwich with more contents to give a value added product which the customers will very much enjoy.
