... 1. Inside the lungs, the blood capillaries surround the alveoli. The exchange of gases takes place between the blood of the capillaries and the gases present in the alveoli. Thus alveoli are the site for exchange of gases. 2. During the process of inhalation, the lungs get filled up with air as rib ...

... The Heart is the organ that pumps blood through the frog’s body and it is split into three parts or “chambers” - the left atrium, the right atrium and the ventricle. Like in other animals, the frog heart’s job is to pump blood to the lungs where the blood becomes rich in oxygen. This oxygen rich blo ...

In the lungs, the curve shifts to the LHS due to the lower levels of CO2, lower temp and lower lactic acid levels. The affinity of Hb f ...

... A collapsed lung, or pneumothorax, is the collection of air in the space around the lungs. This buildup of air puts pressure on the lung, so it cannot expand as much as it normally does when you take a breath.

Organisms at high altitude



Organisms can live at high altitude, either on land, or while flying. Decreased oxygen availability and decreased temperature make life at high altitude challenging. Despite these environmental conditions, many species have been successfully adapted at high altitudes. Animals have developed physiological adaptations to enhance oxygen uptake and delivery to tissues which can be used to sustain metabolism. The strategies used by animals to adapt to high altitude depend on their morphology and phylogeny.
