Answer:
- A respiratory surface is covered with thin, moist epithelial cells that allow oxygen and carbon dioxide to exchange.
- Those gases can only cross cell membranes when they are dissolved in water or an aqueous solution, thus respiratory surfaces must be moist.
- Large animals cannot maintain gas exchange by diffusion across their outer surface. They developed a variety of respiratory surfaces that all increase the surface area for exchange, thus allowing for larger bodies.
