Not sure question 5 is right...

Looked up spirometer and nowhere says anything about oxygen uptake/carbon dioxide output??

The rest were great!

good questions. I'd say that the only thing to improve on is maybe putting in more questions about the anatomy of the heart, alveoli etc

Number 5 is wrong...it measures the oxygen uptake. It couldn't possibly measure the carbon dioxide as it gets absorbed by the soda lime present :)

Other than that, good quiz.

On 1 multicellular organisms have a smallER surface area to volume ratio... compared to unicellular organisms.

Other than that very useful

People who got 100% on this are wrong! Please change the answer of number 5 to oxygen because this is the correct answer. Check Pg.51 of the purple text book (large heading saying 'measuring oxygen uptake' on a page about spirometers) or Pg.59 of the green text book (Another heading saying 'Measuring oxygen consumption' on another page about the spirometer) thanks. Otherwise a good quiz :)
