The model on test is the 'Sprinter Stick which according to the website is designed to be a 'segmental stretching device' and is the most rigid of the smaller models. The rigidity is still allows some flex without too much pressure and the stick certainly feels strong enough to take a hard rub if needs be.
In most vertebrates oxygen enters the bloodstream  via diffusion at the alveoli of the lungs. This diffusion (a  passive thing) is accomplished because oxygen concentration â¦ in the  lungs is much higher than that of the blood, even than that of   oxygenated blood.es, in a sense the respiratory system removes oxygen from the air and replaces it with carbon dioxide. When the respiratory system takes in air, it reduces the concentration â¦ of oxygen from 21% to 16%. The air is inhaled by the diaphragm into the trachea, which leads into the lungs via the bronchi.
In the capillaries the blood takes up oxygen from the air breathed into the air sacs and releases carbon dioxide. It then flows into larger and larger vessels until the pulmonary veins (usually four in number, each serving a whole lobe of the lung) are reached. The pulmonary veins open into the left atrium of the heart. Compare systemic circulation. zoom_in.
