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.

Explain how the chemical properties of water affect the solubility of inorganic and organic molecules and how is this so importa
Delvig [45]

Explanation:

Water molecules are polar, meaning they have dipole polarities. The Hydrogen end is partially positive while the Oxygen end is partially negative. This is due to the fact that oxygen has a higher atomic mass and hence attracts most of the electron cloud of the molecule towards its end.

This property of water is very important because it is able to dissolve polar molecules while non-polar molecules do not dissolve. This is an important property in the body of organisms because, for example, water helps in the folding of proteins (by interacting with polar motifs of a protein) hence ensuring the protein maintains their functional structural forms.

Water also dissolves significant polar molecules that are utilized by the body, such as glucose, and helps in their transportation within the body. Water is also significant in the diffusion of hormones used in cell signaling, e.t.c.  

Water is also able to dissociate ionic compounds, such as sodium chloride, that are important in the osmotic pressure homeostasis of cells.

Gram-negative bacteria have a cell wall that is and does not accept the stain, making it appear .
harkovskaia [24]
<span>Gram-negative bacteria have a cell wall that is <u>thin</u> and does not accept the stain, making it appear <u>red or pink</u><u />.
<u>
</u>Gram staining is used for differentiation gram-positive from gram-negative bacteria based on the characteristic of their cell wall. Gram-negative bacteria have a thinner cell wall than gram-positive bacteria. In this staining, bacteria are first stained with crystal violet dye. Only gram-positive bacteria will be violet colored because they can retain the dye thanks to their cell wall. The second staining with fuchsine or safranin will give the red or pink color to the gram-negative bacteria. <u>
