Frage 1

Frage
As their main gas exchange organ, fish use [blank_start]gills[blank_end]. Their structure consists of [blank_start]an arch[blank_end] from which [blank_start]filaments[blank_end] project. Each filament contains many [blank_start]lamellae[blank_end], through which capillaries run. This is the site at which gas exchange takes place. The blood flows through the capillaries in the [blank_start]opposite[blank_end] direction as/to the water that flows through the gills, creating a [blank_start]countercurrent[blank_end] exchange. This ensures there is a favourable gradient in [blank_start]water potential[blank_end] between the water and the blood.

Frage 2

Frage
The structure that covers the gills of a fish is called the [blank_start]operculum[blank_end].
Antworten
  • operculum

Frage 3

Frage
Label the diagram of the insect's gas exchange system, labelling answers in plural form.
Antworten
  • spiracles
  • air sacs
  • tracheae
  • tracheoles

Frage 4

Frage
Which of the following correctly explain how gas moves dynamically throughout the insect's gas exchange system? Check all that apply.
Antworten
  • Gases move down a concentration gradient towards respiring tissue.
  • Muscle movements squeeze and 'pump' air throughout the tracheoles and tracheae.
  • Lactate in respiring tissues draws in water, which is followed by gas.
  • Insects have rib-like cartilage structures that rotate, acting like a spiral that pumps air.

Frage 5

Frage
Spiracles constantly expose the inside of an insect's gas exchange system to the outside world.
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 6

Frage
Which of the following are adaptations of spiracles to gas exchange?
Antworten
  • Lots of mitochondria to generate ATP
  • Small surface area:volume ratio
  • Large surface area:volume ratio
  • Waterproof
  • Secrete surfactant to dissolve gases
