1.4 Exchanging material - The Lungs (1) | - Large organisms need exchanges surfaces. They have features to make them efficient. The lungs are adapted to be an efficient exchange surface. - Oxygen is absorbed by the lungs and CO2 is removed. |
1.4 Exchanging material - The Lungs (2) | - Efficient exchange surfaces have: large surface area. Thin walls/short diffusion path. Efficient transport system (Blood). - The surface area of lungs is increased by alveoli (air sacs) |
1.4 Exchanging material - The Lungs (3) | - Alveoli have thin walls, large surface area and good blood supply. -Lungs are ventilated to maintain steep diffusion gradient. - Oxygen diffuses into the capillaries around the alveoli. |
Exchanging material - The Lungs Questions: 1) What makes a good exchange surface? (3 things) | Answer: 1)- Efficient exchange surfaces have: large surface area. Thin walls/short diffusion path. Efficient transport system (Blood). |
