Multicellular organisms like humans have large body size and hence diffusion pressure alone cannot carry oxygen to all body parts. Thus, they have respiratory pigment to take up oxygen from lungs to body parts.

Carbon dioxide gas is essential for photosynthesis by plants- It is also a green-house gas (GHG). Upto 350 ppm (ppm = parts per million) concentration in the-atmosphere, CO₂ is both a good raw material as well as essential for keeping the Earth warm. However, when concentration of Co₂ rises (as presRead more

Upto 350 ppm (ppm = parts per million) concentration in the-atmosphere, CO₂ is both a good raw material as well as essential for keeping the Earth warm. However, when concentration of Co₂ rises (as presently it is 387 ppm), it becomes a pollutant because it-results in global warming. The global warming is quite dangerous because it tends to melt polar ice and glaciers existing on mountains, raise in the water level of oceans and submerge severals coastal areas and islands.
sun plays an important role in weathering of rocks for soil formation. It heats up the rocks during the day. Heating causes the rocks to expand. During night, the rocks cool down and contract. Deferent parts of a rock expand and contract at different rates resulting in its cracking and breaking up iRead more

Diffusion is insufficient to meet the oxygen requirements of multicellular organisms like human. State reason.
Multicellular organisms like humans have large body size and hence diffusion pressure alone cannot carry oxygen to all body parts. Thus, they have respiratory pigment to take up oxygen from lungs to body parts.
