  • Q8
    During exercise the water in an insect's tracheoles moves into muscle cells. What's the mechanism
    Cohesion-tension forces, due to hydrogen bonds
    Increases pressure due to air movement
    Osmosis due to due to decreased water potential in muscle cells, as a result of lactic acid formation.

  • Q9
    What is the benefit of countercurrent flow in fish gills?
    Maintains a concentration (diffusion ) gradient across the entire width of the lamellae
    Allows water movement (by osmosis) into the tissues of saltwater fish
    Maximises the concentration (diffusion ) gradient as water begins to flow over the lamellae
    Enables water to flow with less friction

  • Q13
    Why does air move out of the lungs when we exhale?
    Increasing volume causes decreasing pressure inside the lungs. Air moves from high to low pressure.
    Decreasing volume reduces the air pressure inside the lungs. Air moves from low to high pressure.
    Decreasing volume causes increasing pressure inside the lungs. Air moves from high to low pressure

    External intercostal muscles contract, diaphragm contracts
    External intercostal muscles relaxes, diaphragm relaxes
    Internal intercostal muscles contract, diaphragm relaxes
