what are the characters of an ideal resipiratory system
Answers
Answer:
The three characteristics of lungs that make them an efficient respiratory surface are-
1) Large surface area - Lungs have a huge quantity of alveoli that enhances the surface area needed for the transfer of gases.
2) Thin walls - There is a single sheet of cells available in the alveolar surface which provides gases a short dissemination distance.
3) Extensive blood supply - There is widespread blood accumulation in the lungs, which guarantees that oxygen-rich blood is carried away from the lungs and blood rich in carbon dioxide is carried to the lungs.
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.
