Identify the type of respiration and organs for the given organisms below:
Amoeba
Sparrow
Grasshopper
Whales
Hydrilla
ladybird beetle
Shark
Answers
Answer:
*This organism does not have a specialized organ to do the process of respiration. So in amoeba respiration takes place through its cell membrane also called plasma membrane. Amoeba gets oxygen gas dissolved in surrounding water through its plasma membrane by the process of diffusion.
*lungs
sparrows ventilated the respiratory parts of their lungs 77% more than at sea level. At sea level and 6100 m. respectively, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the lungs dropped from 39.5 to 27.2 mm. Hg, and the partial pressure of oxygen in the lungs dropped from 100 to 28 mm.
* In grasshopper, respiration is performed using air-filled tubes called tracheae, which open at the surfaces of the thorax and abdomen through pairs of spiracles. ... The tracheoles, found at the end of the tracheal tubes, are insinuated between cells and carry oxygen throughout the body
*Whales and dolphins are mammals and breathe air into their lungs, just like we do. They cannot breathe underwater like fish can as they do not have gills. They breathe through nostrils, called a blowhole, located right on top of their heads.
*Hydrilla plant mostly used in the practical work to prove that oxygen is formed during photoshythesis because Hydrilla is a submerged aquatic plant and it have not stomata to take carbon dioxide and release oxygen that is why it respires through their whole body surface and release oxygen through this so we can easily ...
*When the ladybug takes flight, the elytra open, and the thin, veined wings unfold. The abdomen contains organs for digestion, respiration, and reproduction. Adult ladybugs breathe air, but the air enters the body through openings, called spiracles, found on the sides of the abdomen and thorax.
*Like other fish, sharks "breathe" through their gills, which are respiratory organs akin to our lungs. As water passes over the gill's membranes, tiny blood vessels extract oxygen from the water. Carbon dioxide waste also passes from the shark's blood and out of its body through the gill tissue.
