Chapter 42 Circulation and Gas Exchange
Substantial emphasis is placed in Chapter 42 on the big picture of animals existing only by virtue of
exchanging matter with their environments. In particular, oxygen and carbon dioxide dynamics are
explored in a wide variety of animals, with close investigation of the diverse structures and functions
involved in gas exchange. The Test an! "uestions assess learning across many levels of in"uiry, from
atomic to organismal.
