Solution. 1  This species has a 2â charge on it, so it is an anion. Anions are named using the stem of the element name with the suffix -ide added. 2  Because this species has no charge, it is an atom in its elemental form. This is cobalt. 3  In this case, there is a 2+ charge on the atom, so it is a cation.
1. 2. 3. The walls of the alveoli are composed of a single layer of flattened epithelial cells, as are the walls of the capillaries, so gases need to diffuse through just two thin cells. The alveoli walls are kept moist by water diffusing from the surrounding cells.he walls of the alveoli are composed of a single layer of flattened epithelial cells, as are the walls of the capillaries, so gases need to diffuse through just two thin cells.

The three types of diffusion in an independent cell are simple  diffusion, facilitated, and active. The function of simple  diffusion is to transfer oxygen. Facilitated diff â¦ usion transports  water or non polar molecules.Active diffusion transports materials  against the concentration gradient.he function of simple  diffusion is to transfer oxygen.
