Objectives
• Compare respiration in plants and animals.
-Describe how gas exchange occurs in plants.
• Compare the human gaseous exchange system with those of other
animals.
• Identify the limitations of lungs, gills and body surface covering as
sites of gas exchange.
Which of these statements are the closest to the truth? Which are wrong? Why?

You have 1 minute to think on your own, then one minute to discuss with a partner then
we will share with the class.
