Dragonflies exchange gases through a system of tracheae that run throughout their bodies. These tracheae deliver oxygen directly to the tissues and remove carbon dioxide. This type of gas exchange system allows for efficient diffusion of gases without the need for specialized respiratory structures like lungs or gills.
In the lungs, oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the bloodstream through the process of gas exchange facilitated by differences in partial pressure.
During the germination process, oxygen is absorbed by the seed and carbon dioxide is released as a byproduct of respiration. This gas exchange is necessary for energy production and growth in the germinating seed.
The process involved in the passage of gas between the alveolus and the blood is called gas exchange. This occurs through diffusion, where oxygen moves from the alveolus into the capillaries and carbon dioxide moves from the capillaries into the alveolus.
The chorion, a membrane surrounding the amniotic fluid, is responsible for gas exchange in the amniote egg. It allows for the diffusion of oxygen into the egg and the removal of carbon dioxide produced by the embryo. This process is crucial for the embryo's survival and development within the egg.
The respiratory system is responsible for providing gas exchange between the blood and the air. This process occurs in the lungs where oxygen is taken up by the blood and carbon dioxide is released from the blood into the air through the alveoli.

Alveoli- these are the small sac-like structures where gas exchange occurs with the blood. Its creates an ideal site for gas exchange between the air in the lungs and the blood in the capillaries.
Diffusion is the process that allows the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the alveoli. This process is one of passive transport.
False
Diffusion
Gas exchange can also be referred to as respiration. This process involves the uptake of oxygen and release of carbon dioxide in living organisms. It occurs in specialized organs such as the lungs in mammals and gills in fish.
The Process of gas exchange is called Respiration
The process is called gas exchange or specifically, in the case of carbon dioxide and oxygen, it is known as ocean-atmosphere gas exchange. This process is essential for maintaining the balance of gases between the ocean surface and the atmosphere.
Because to carry out the process of diffusion of gas.
In the lungs, oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the bloodstream through the process of gas exchange facilitated by differences in partial pressure.
