Urinary System/Excretory

Removes wastes from blood; regulates concentration of body fluids

Lymphatic

Defends against pathogens and disease

Integumentary System

Protects against injury, infection, and fluid loss; helps regulate body temperature

Muscular System

Moves limbs and trunk; moves substances through body; provides structure and support

Nervous System

Regulates behavior, maintains homeostasis; regulates other organ systems; controls sensory and motor functions

Reproductive System

Produces gametes and offspring

Respiratory System

Moves air into and out of the lungs; controls gas exchange between blood and lungs

Skeletal System

The large number of alveoli in lungs improve diffusion by ____.
nekit [7.7K]

Answer: a. Increasing the surface area for diffusion

Explanation:

When the air is inhaled through the nostrils, the air containing the oxygen the air diffuses inside the alveoli. The alveoli are the tiny sacs where air enters and exchange of gases takes place. From the alveoli the oxygen enters into the blood stream. The oxygen is utilized by the cells for respiration. The increase in network and number of the alveoli will increase the surface area for the diffusion of oxygen and hence, will speed up the respiration process.

The xylem generally transports _____, whereas the phloem transports _____.
kenny6666 [7]
The answers are "water and mineral ions" and "amino acids and sucrose" respectively.

For the xylem, it usually transports water and mineral ions that are absorbed from the root hair cells up to the leaves, where photosynthesis take place. Water is one of the necessary substance for photosynthesis to take place, while different mineral ions can help the plant by for example Magnesium ions can help produce chloroplast.

While phloem transports amino acid and sucrose from the location of production (eg. Leaves by photosynthesis) to the place where it is used or stored. Plant needs these substances to generate energy for activities such as growth by for example cellular respiration. This process is called translocation.

Both of these tubes help transport substances in the plant, in order to keep the plant alive.
