The major function of the respiratory system in an organism is to carry out the exchange of gases: take in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide.
Explanation:
- This process of diffusion occurs through a semipermeable membrane in the lungs of animals. These membranes called alveoli are very thin and delicate structures.
- When there is a large surface area, and the membrane is thin, there is increased rate of diffusion.
- The duct that carries atmospheric air into the alveoli has minute hair like structures, that filters the air of foreign particles, thus protecting the organs from being infiltrated by dust particles.
