Chapter 39, Problem 11TYU
Summary Introduction

To predict: The effects of rapid breathing on homeostasis if the blood and the interstitial fluid have a high concentration of carbon dioxide.

Introduction: In order to function properly, animals need to maintain the temperature and pH within relatively narrow limits. Homeostasis is the state of balanced internal environment. The internal environment stays in a dynamic equilibrium where conditions remain within narrow limits. This state of dynamic equilibrium is known as steady state.

Practice concentration gradients: A) Active tissues generate carbon dioxide during cell respiration. This carbon dioxide diffuses out of the tissue into the bloodstream. 1) where is the higher concentration of carbon dioxide ? 2) is Carbon dioxide flowing down or against its concentration gradient ? 3) Is energy required for the movement of carbon dioxide ? Calculate concentration gradient solute 55M    Solute 52M
Please answer fast 1. In humans, ventilation, digestion, and blood flow are important biological processes. Explain, the relationship between the structure of tissues or organs and one of these processes.
Perch, Frog and Pig. 1.  Why do these organisms require a specialized organ to increase surface area for gas exchange?  Discuss organismal volume relative to surface area in your answer. 2.  Why are these respiratory structures associated with a large blood supply?
