What are the differences in the dynamics of microtubules and actin filaments?
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Microtubules, like actin filaments, are dynamic structures: they can grow and shrink quickly by the addition or removal of tubulin proteins. Also similar to actin filaments, microtubules have directionality, meaning that they have two ends that are structurally different from one another. I hope this helps :)

Describe how alveoli are adapted for gas exchange( 4 marks)​
SashulF [63]

Answer:

they give the lungs a really big surface area. they have moist, thin walls (just one cell thick) they have a lot of tiny blood vessels called capillaries.

The walls of the alveoli are only one cell thick. This makes the exchange surface very thin - shortening the diffusion distance across which gases have to move. Each alveolus is surrounded by blood capillaries which ensure a good blood supply.Adaptations of the alveoli:

Thin walls - alveolar walls are one cell thick providing gases with a short diffusion distance. Moist walls - gases dissolve in the moisture helping them to pass across the gas exchange surface. Permeable walls - allow gases to pass through.
