Insects do not have lungs as we do, nor do they breathe through their mouths. Instead, they have a system of tiny tubes, called tra- cheae, through which oxygen diffuses into their bodies. The tracheae begin at the surface of an insect's body and penetrate into the interior. Suppose that a trachea is 1.9 mm long with a cross-sectional area of 2.1 × 10-º m². The concentration of oxygen in the air outside the insect is 0.28 kg/m², and the diffusion constant is 1.1 × 10-5 m²/s. If the mass per second of oxygen diffusing through a trachea is 1.7 X 10-12 kg/s, find the oxygen concentra- tion at the interior end of the tube.arrow_forward16.

- Most bacteria that cause sickness in humans grow best at 37 degrees Celsius. Sometimes a fever is the body's response to the bacteria. What is the reason for developing a fever? * No answer To lower the temperature of the body to kill the bacteria. To deprive the bacteria of nutrients. To allow your body to sweat more, releasing heat. Bacteria grow slower when the temperature is higher.arrow_forward40.
