Which of the following have the most efficient lungs: amphibians, mammals or birds? Explain your answer.   Answer:
Create a graph of the number of bubbles released and the concentration of carbon dioxide.
Consider modeling the concentration of a chemical in a lung using the table below.Fill in the missing values and calculate the concentration at time t = 1 if the starting concentration is   c0 = 0.11 mmol/L (millimoles per liter). Suppose the volume of the lung is V = 2.5 liters, the volume of air inhaled and exhaled in each breath is W =1.5 liters, and the ambient concentration of the surrounding air is a fixed 0.18 mmol/L. STEP Volume (L) Chemical (mmol) Concentration (mmol/L) Before Exhale 2.5   0.11 Exhale 1.5   0.11 After Exhale     0.11 Inhale 1.5     After Inhale       The concentration at time t = 1 is c1: ______
