Know the functions of the mammalian respiratory system - to supply oxygen to the cells which they need to perform cellular respiration and to rid the body of CO2 Recall the reason for 'death-zone' - people who are at a certain elevation and above for more than 48 hours get insufficient oxygen Describe the hypothesized reasons for the decline in O2 during the late Permian - Land masses form super-continent which led to a dryer climate and a reduction in photosynthesis which led to the red...

residual lung volume - amount of air left in the lungs after exhaling Explain why residual lung volume exists - keep the alveoli open even after maximum expiration which allows for continual gas exchange to occur between breaths. Explain how the circular processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration result in the cycling of carbon within ecosystems. - CR produces CO2 and water which PS uses to make O2 and glucose which CR uses Explain the two reasons for an imbalance in this cycl...
