Which features of alveoli enable them to exchange gases efficiently? (Select all that apply.)
A. thin walls
B. surrounded by blood vessels
C. small numbers of them in each lung
D. large surface area
Do not scam me using links or attachments (except photos of the answer) or answer this by saying a simple yes or no because that also scams me.
Answer:
the answer is a i hope this helps
Explanation:
The sac-like structure of the alveoli increases their surface area. In addition, the alveoli are made of thin-walled parenchymal cells. These features allow gases to easily diffuse across the cells. so the
Alveoli has thin walls which are surrounded by blood vessels, and they have maximized are for gas exchange. Thus, option A, B, and D are correct.
What are Alveoli?These are basic respiratory units, which are balloon like structure present in the lungs, where exchange of gases takes place. A pair of human lungs can contain approximately 480 million alveoli, which produces about, 50 to 75 square meters surface are.
Alveoli are made of thin walls, and they are covered by a rich blood supply through capillaries, this supplies a diffusion gradient for oxygen to move into the blood and carbon dioxide to move into the lungs.
Therefore, the larger surface area, presence of thin wall, which is only one cell thick, and rich blood supply due to presence of blood vessels enable them to exchange gases efficiently.

Individuals with the recessive trait of night blindness (genotype nn) have difficulty seeing in low light. The pedigree shows the inheritance of night blindness in a certain family.Which of these are possible genotypes of the parental generation? Refer to the figure below and match the angle with the correct measurement in degrees.
Answer:
Cool
Explanation:
The possible genotypes of the parental generation are as follows :
Male : Night Blindness Female : Normal What is Genotype ?Genotype is the collection of the the two alleles that makes up the gene inherited by an offspring from its parents.
Given that only one of the males of the first generation suffers from Night blindness, He inherited the Night blindness from the parental generation. therefore the male from the parental generation is a carrier of the Night blindness allele while the Female is not a carrier.
Hence we can conclude that The possible genotypes of the parental generation are Male : Night Blindness and Female : Normal.

Respuesta:
B. pastoreo excesivo de animales de granja
Porque son lugares secos.
Explicación:
Las políticas e infraestructuras que promueven la agricultura en las tierras de pastoreo que no pueden mantener sistemas viables de cultivo, contribuyen a la desertificación. La mayoría de las áreas de tierras secas (el 65%) son tierras de pastoreo que son más adecuadas para el pastoreo sostenible que para el cultivo.
