GCSE Biology - Specialised Exchange Surfaces

The video explains specialized exchange surfaces in organisms, focusing on their role in exchanging substances with the environment. It highlights examples like alveoli in humans and root hair cells in plants. The video outlines common features of these surfaces, such as large surface area, thinness, permeability, and the importance of a good blood supply and external medium. These features facilitate efficient diffusion and maintain concentration gradients necessary for effective exchange processes.
