Question

compare the functioning of alveoli in the lungs and nephron in the kidneys with respect to their structure and functioning.

Answer 1

Alveoli are tiny sacs within our lungs that allow oxygen and carbon dioxide to move between the lungs and bloodstream. Learn more about how they function and quiz your knowledge at the end.
Nephron is the basic unit of structure in the kidney. A nephron is used separate to water, ions and small molecules from the blood, filter out wastes and toxins, and return needed molecules to the blood. The nephron functions through ultrafiltration.

Answer 2

ALVEOLI IN LUNGS :-

1. Alveoli are balloon like structures.

2. It is made up of one celled thick wall which contains extensive network of blood capillaries.

3. Alveoli are the site of gaseous exchange in lungs. Exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place between the blood flowing in capillaries which surround the alveoli and gases present in the alveoli.

NEPHRONS IN KIDNEY:-

1. Nephron are long tubular structures.

2. It is made up of glomerulus , Bowman's capsule and a long renal tube.

3. Nephron are the basic filteration unit of kidney. Each nephron filters the blood and separates the nitorgenous waste in the form of urine.
