Biology Solutions from Chapter -1 - Breathing and Exchange of Gases
This chapter describes the respiration process that takes place inside the body. This includes the volume of oxygen required by the body and its transportation throughout the bloodstream.
Practice Other Topics from Breathing and Exchange of Gases
This topic deals with the respiratory organs in animals including gills and lungs. We will also study that different species have different organs for respiration.
This topic describes the mechanism of breathing in animals. There are two stages involved in breathing—expiration and inspiration. It explains in detail the process by which air moves in and out of the lungs.
This topic describes the exchange of gases during respiration. The primary site for the exchange of gases are the alveoli. It discusses the exchange of gases at the alveolus and the body tissues and the transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
This topic describes the transport of gases. Blood is the medium of transport for O2 and CO2. It discusses the transport of Oxygen and carbon dioxide in detail.
This topic describes how human being are able to maintain and moderate the respiratory rhythm to suit the demands of the body tissues. The neural system helps in regulating respiration.
This topic describes some disorders of the respiratory system. We will learn how these disorders occur and how it impacts our lives.
