The way gases move between the capillaries and alveoli is called...?
Osmosis
Diffusion
Atmosphere
Pressure
What gas do we breath out as waste?

The (a) are tubes that connect the trachea to the lungs
As you breathe out, what does your diaphragm do?
Relax
Contract
Which of these are adaptations of alveoli?
Long, finger-like structure increases surface area
The membrane is only one cell thick which means gases have a short diffusion distance
Lots of tiny capillaries so gases can pass easily into the blood stream
Moist
Lots of enzymes so there are tiny molecules suitable for diffusion
Given the following structures:
1. alveoli
2. bronchi
3. bronchioles

What is the purpose of specialized exchange surfaces in humans?
To increase the surface area to volume ratio
To decrease the surface area to volume ratio
To increase the volume
To decrease the volume
What is the purpose of transport systems in humans?
To increase the surface area to volume ratio
To decrease the surface area to volume ratio
To increase the volume
To transport substances to the parts of the body that need them
What is the effect of diffusion distances on larger organisms?
Diffusion becomes faster
Diffusion becomes slower
Diffusion remains the same
Diffusion stops
Why do larger organisms need transport systems?
To increase the surface area to volume ratio
To decrease the surface area to volume ratio
To increase the volume
To transport substances to the parts of the body that need them
What are specialized exchange surfaces in plants?
Roots and leaves
Heart and blood vessels
Alveoli and villi
Phloem and xylem
What is the surface area to volume ratio?
The measure of how big the surface area is compared to the volume
The measure of how big the volume is compared to the surface area
The measure of how big the length is compared to the width
The measure of how big the height is compared to the width
Why do small organisms like bacteria rely on diffusion through their surface to exchange substances?
Because they have a high surface area to volume ratio
Because they have a low surface area to volume ratio
Because they have specialized exchange surfaces
Because they have transport systems
