Answer:

The heart pumps blood through the lungs. In the lungs the blood receives oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. Then the heart pumps this oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to your cells. When the oxygen-rich blood gets to the cells, the cells receive the oxygen and release the carbon dioxide.

The cells in our bodies need oxygen to stay alive. Carbon dioxide is made in our bodies as cells do their jobs. The lungs and respiratory system allow oxygen in the air to be taken into the body, while also letting the body get rid of carbon dioxide in the air breathed out.

Hopefully this helps :)

alex41 [277]

Answer:

r-selected species (e.g., American bullfrog)

Explanation:

The r-selected species (r-strategists) are those species in which their populations oscillate near the carrying capacity, i.e., the maximum population size sustained by a particular environment. These species are generally located in low-quality (less competitive) ecological niches and produce many offsprings that grow rapidly and have low chances of surviving to adulthood. Some examples of r-strategists include amphibians, fish, small mammals, etc. Conversely, K-selected species have more stable populations and produce a low amount of offspring (e.g., large mammals such as elephants).

how do oxygen and carbon dioxide cross from the alveoli through the capillary walls and into the blood?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

The concentration gradient of oxygen in your lungs wants to flow toward homeostasis and oxygen is bound on red blood cells by hemoglobin, along with the attraction of oxygen to hemoglobin. The concentration gradient from carbon dioxide from the capillary to the lungs. There is more oxygen in your lungs (alveoli) than there is carbon dioxide and everything want to reach homeostasis, or level amounts on both sides.
