1[blank_start]diffusion[blank_end] is the process that moves gases across the surface of gaseous exchange very slowly down a concentration gradient.
- Adiffusion
2Which of the following is not a property of a gaseous exchange surface?
- Ait must be thin
- Bit must have a small surface area
- Cit should have a good air and blood supply
- Dit must be a moist surface
3the gaseous exchange surface in animals are called [blank_start]alveoli[blank_end] while that of fish are called [blank_start]gill lamellae.[blank_end]
- Agill lamellae.
- Balveoli
4The gases diffused faster when dissolved in a liquid thus the gaseous exchange surface must always be kept [blank_start]moist[blank_end]
- Amoist
5the gaseous exchange surface of a worm is its
- Alungs
- Bstoma
- Ccell membrane
- Dskin
6the [blank_start]thinness[blank_end] of a G.E.S. helps to reduce the distance for gases to travel while its [blank_start]large surface area[blank_end] ensure there is maximum surface absorption.
- Athinness
- Blarge surface area
7The [blank_start]gill rakers[blank_end] filter the the water of particles before the water envelopes the G.E.S. OF [blank_start]gill lamellae[blank_end] of the fish.
- Agill rakers
- Bgill lamellae
8Identify a property of a gaseous exchange surface that is essential for terrestrial animals but not for aquatic animals
- Aa large surface area
- Ba moisture layer
- Ca good blood supply
- Da good air supply
9The practice of free style diving that is diving on one breathe of air or holding ones breathe under the water for an extended time >2 minutes causes what positive change in a person's lungs
- Aincreases moisture production resulting in faster diffusion
- Bincreases air supply to the G.E.S. resulting in more air available
- Cincreases the surface area resulting in more efficient absorption of oxygen from air
- Dincreases the rate of blood flow for faster oxygen transport
10It is said that the larger an organism gets there is an increase in its surface area to volume ratio
- ATrue
- BFalse
