Question

Look at the diagram and answer the following questions
1) Name and define the process shown in the above picture?
2) What is the relationship between area and pressure?
3) Write the general equation for respiration.
4) Name the two stages of respiration.
5) Mention any two ideal characteristics of a respiratory subsurface

Answer 1

Answer

1) Respiration: A process in which glucose is broken down with the help of oxygen and energy is released along with the production of carbon dioxide and water.

2) Pressure is inversely proportional to the area of contact.

3) 6C 12H 6O + 6(O2) → 6(CO2) + 6(H2O)

4) (stage 1) glycolysis & (stage 2) the Krebs cycle, also called the citric acid cycle.

5) A high surface area, moist and thin walls (and in contact with many blood capillaries to allow easy exchange of gases or diffusion.

hope this helps.
