Document Summary
Those adrenal glands are one of the important sources of sex steroids. The rib is really adrenal gland in adam and eve"s rib story. Diffusion of respiratory gases in uni- vs multi-cellular organisms with (d) and without (a-c) 4-chambered hearts (fig 25-1) Convection-bulk movement of a gas or a liquid like the plumbing in your house. Can be referred to as bulk flow (unicellular) diffusion- no bulk flow. Convection inside or outside the organism- introduce the context of gradient. Humans + mammals, gradients are large and fairly complex. Dalton"s law: in an environment containing a mixture of pressures the total pressures of those gases are equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases. Gases in air: nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide. Each one exerts a partial pressure, makes up a barometric pressure (total pressure in the room). Partial pressure of individual gas= only need to know total pressure and mole fraction or.
