Surface area / Volume ratio Experiment Introduction: The surface area to volume ratio in living organisms is very important. Nutrients and oxygen need to diffuse through the cell membrane and into the cells. Most cells are no longer than 1mm in diameter because small cells enable nutrients and oxygen to diffuse into the cell quickly and allow waste to diffuse out of the cell quickly. If the cells were any bigger than this then it would take too long for the nutrients and oxygen to diffuse into

Respiratory System The respiratory system is the bodies way to inhale and exhale air and diffuse oxygen. This system consists of several organs such as the trachea‚ lungs‚ larynx‚ pharynx‚ etc. All of these organs work together to help us breathe and are formed to their function. There is two different ways of respiration; external respiration which is the exchange of gases between the alveoli and the blood‚ and internal respiration which is the exchange of gases between the blood and tissue cells

RESPIRATORY PIGMENTS Colored‚ metal-containing proteins that combine reversibly with oxygen‚ found in the body fluids or tissues of multi-cellular invertebrate animals and microorganisms. The role of these pigments is primarily to aid in the transport of molecular oxygen. Thus they are distinguished from respiratory enzymes‚ which are concerned with the metabolic consumption of oxygen. Four distinctly colored groups of respiratory pigments exist among invertebrates: hemoglobins (purple‚ become orange-red
