Answer: These villi increase the surface area for more efficient food absorption. Within these villi, are present numerous blood vessels that absorb the digested food and carry it to the bloodstream. It is hence from the bloodstream, the absorbed food is delivered to each and every cell of the body.

The process of exchanging gases (carbon dioxide for oxygen) occurs at the lung alveoli. Alveoli are coated with a moist film that dissolves air in the lungs. Oxygen diffuses across the thin epithelium of the alveoli sacs into the blood within the surrounding capillaries.

In exocytosis, a cell releases substances into its environment. During exocytosis, vesicles that contain substances are moved to the cell membrane and fuse with it. This cell membrane function has three results: the total surface of the membrane increases, toxins or waste products are eliminated, and proteins become part of the plasma membrane.

Answer:

blood picks up oxygen from the lung from tiny sacs called alveoli and transports it the cells where it enters the cell membrane

How is the epithelium suited for the substances ?
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Epithelial tissue is composed of cells laid together in sheets with the cells tightly connected to one another. Epithelial layers are avascular, but innervated.

Epithelial cells have two surfaces that differ in both structure and function.

The epithelial cells are nourished by substances diffusing from blood vessels in the underlying connective tissue. One side of the epithelial cell is oriented towards the surface of the tissue, body cavity, or external environment and the other surface is joined to a basement membrane. The basement layer is non-cellular in nature and helps to cement the epithelial tissue to the underlying structures.

Answer/Explanation:

Green plants can synthesise their own food by using light energy from the sun to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, with the release of oxygen. This process is called photosynthesis, and it occurs in specialized organelles called chloroplasts.  The first stages of photosynthesis require light energy, and are often called the light-dependent reactions. The next stages occur in the absence of light energy, called the light-independent reactions.

In the light-dependent reactions, chlorophyll in the chloroplasts absorb light, converting into stored chemical energy in the form of NADPH and ATP. The high energy electron produced by light absorption travels down an electron transport chain, driving the pumping of hydrogen ions and creating a gradient. This provides the energy to produce ATP by ATP synthase

This process is used to provide for the light-independent reactions to  form carbohydrates from carbon dioxide during a process called the Calvin cycle. The carbohydrates produced during photosynthesis are broken down during cellular respiration to generate ATP.
