Thin Explain Layers Increase Efficiency Exchange Surfaces Distances

Front Explain how thin layers increase efficiency of exchange surfaces. + example
Back Thin layers:
  • Distances that substances need to diffuse are short, increasing the rate of diffusion - more efficient
  • Example: alveoli in lungs
