Holding your breath while ascending can lead to all of the above options.

Surfacing excessively fast or holding the breathing while swimming to the surface can make the air in the lungs expand which is known as pneumonic barotrauma. This might break lung tissue, which can prompt gas bubbles to be delivered into the blood vessel dissemination (arterial gas embolism).

The air in the lungs becomes risky when an individual ascends. On the off chance that somebody holds their breath while rising to the surface, the lungs and the air inside them extend as the water pressure decreases. Since that air has no place to escape, it continues to expand against the walls of the lungs, no matter what the organ's capacity.

How does the digestive system interact with the rest of the body
Ainat [17]

Answer:

The Digestive System gets nutrients (good) from food and hands it over to the blood and Circulatory System then carries those nutrients where they need to go. It Filters out waste from food and pushes it through intestines and out the body.

Explanation:

As food passes through the GI tract, it mixes with digestive juices, causing large molecules of food to break down into smaller molecules. The body then absorbs these smaller molecules through the walls of the small intestine into the bloodstream, which delivers them to the rest of the body.
