Q

describe process of open circulatory system

A

=Blood is pumped out of open-ended vessels to bathe organs

=Nutrients diffuse out of blood into body cells
=Pores allow blood to be drawn back into heart @ relaxed state

A

epithelium

112
Q

O2 goes from alveoli into _

A

capillaries

113
Q

CO2 diffuses from blood then _ and into _ and leaves__

A

Q

When CO2 dissolves in water, what is formed

A

carbonic acid

118
Q

exercising: Presence of weak acid lowers pH of blood

A

this causes diaphragm to contract faster and increase air and increase gas exchange
