properties of surface
thin surface
large surface area
good blood supply
good ventilation
thin surface
to allow fast diffusion of gases
large s.a
to allow the diffusion of many molecules at the same time
good blood supply
to take gasses to and from the exchange surface
good ventilation
for good supply of oxygen an removal of carbon dioxide
ventilation/breathing
is the act of moving air in and out of the lungs changing the thorax's volume
gas exchange
change of gasses across a gas exchange surface
respiration
is the chemical reaction that breaks down nutrient molecules in living cells to release energy
uses of energy
muscle contraction
protein synthesis
cell division
active transport
growth
passage of nerve impulses
maintenance of a constant body temperature
aerobic respiration
the chemical reaction in the cell that uses oxygen to break down nutrient molecules to release energy
anaerobic respiration
the chemical reaction in the cell that breaks down nutrient molecules to release energy without using oxygen
