Out of the following given choices;
a. they increase the amount of energy transferred from the
lungs to the blood
b. they increase the flexibility of the lungs as they expand
during inhalation
c. they increase the volume of the lungs, allowing more
oxygen to be inhaled
d. they increase the surface area of the lungs, allowing the
efficient gas exchange
The answer is D. Due to their microscopic nature, they are numerous in the lungs and are also circular-shaped so as to increase the surface area for gaseous exchange.
Other characteristics of alveoli that increase gas exchange are that they thinned-walled (with only a layer of cells) and moist.
Answer: option D
The sodium potassium ion exchange move sodium and potassium in opposite direction in electrochemical gradients.
Explanation:
The sodium potassium pump is found in many animals plasma membranes and its moves the sodium and potassium ion in opposite direction across the plasma membrane with the hydrolysis of ATP(adenosine triphosphate) to supply the needed energy. It is an active transport process.
