which belongs to each sentence? In [external/ or cellular] respiration, these gases are exchanged between the body's tissues and the outside environment by way of the respiratory system. In [ external/ or cellular] respiration, these gases are used and created by the metabolic processes of the cells. [alveolar capillary membranes, type 2 alveolar cells, type 1 alveolar cells] make up the main structure of the alveolar wall. The walls of the alveoli  are very thin, separated from the capillary vessels by...

The atmosphere is a giant sedimentation equilibrium experiment. Nitrogen and oxygen are pulled down by the gravitational potential, and diffuse back upwards due to entropy. Assuming the earth’s gravitational acceleration is uniform and 9.802 m s–2, and the average temperature of the atmosphere is –20°C, and the pressure of N2 and O2 at sea-level are 0.79 and 0.20 bar respectively, calculate the pressure of nitrogen and oxygen at the elevation of a transatlantic airplane flight (10 km).
