Explanation / Answer

Answer 13) C) Gill filaments

gaseous exchange takes place across the surface of highly vascularized gills. Gills are specialised organs containing filaments, which further divide into lamellae . The lamellae contain capillaries that provide a large surface area and short diffusion distances, as their walls are extremely thin. Gill rakers are found within the exchange system in order to filter out food, and keep the gills clean.

Answer 14) A - Countercurrent flow

Gills use a countercurrent flow system that increases the efficiency of oxygen-uptake (and waste gas loss).Oxygenated water is drawn in through the mouth and passes over the gills in one direction while blood flows through the lamellae in the opposite direction.

Answer 15) C

Answer 17) B

Mammals and insects both get their oxygen from air, while fish get oxygen from water. Water has a much lower oxygen concentration than air, and is harder to ventilate because it is more viscous. This means fish need to have a more efficient gas exchange system to get enough oxygen from the water. This is why fish have a unidirectional flow of water through the gills while mammals and insects have tidal ventilation

Answer 18) B Mamals do so in order to increase their chest cavity so they can get max air supply .
