The pressure inside your lungs and the pressure outside them fluctuate as you breathe. An illustration of a pressure gradient is this.

<h3>What is an example of pressure gradient?</h3>
  • The pressure gradient is the amount by which the atmospheric pressure drops in a location at a particular time.
  • A pressure gradient is demonstrated by gale-force winds in one city changing to a moderate breeze after an hour. the rate of the pressure in space decreasing (gradient) at a specific period.
<h3>How does pulmonary ventilation change with pressure gradient?</h3>

Thoracic ventilation Because air moves down a pressure gradient, or from an area of greater pressure to an area of lower pressure, the difference in pressures is what drives pulmonary ventilation.

When breathing in and out, the respiratory airways restrict the flow of air. The air must be transported by the pressure gradient from the mount (or nose) to the pulmonary alveoli.

Failure in a particular structure of the heart tends to cause a backup of blood in the lungs, known as pulmonary congestive hear
xeze [42]

Answer:

Left ventricle.

Explanation:

Human heart is divided into four chambers - two auricles and two ventricles. Heart acts as the pumping organ and carries both oxygenated and deoxygenated blood in the right and left ventricles.

The failure of functioning of any chamber of heart may cause a particular disease in the individuals. The pulmonary congestive heart failure occurs due to the failure of the left ventricles of the heart. The left ventricle carries blood from heart to the body tissues, its failure leads to the backup of blood in the lungs.

Thus, the answer is left ventricle.

The trait of medium-sized leaves in iris is determined by the genetic condition PP′. Plants with large leaves are PP, whereas pl
dsp73

Answer:

20 large size leaves plants

40 medium sized leaves plants

20 small sized leaves.

Explanation:

PP = large leaves

P'P' = small leaves

PP' = medium leaves

PP' was crossed with another PP' plant:

PP'   x   PP'

progeny = PP, 2PP', and P'P'

PP = 1/4  x 80 = 20 large size leaves plants

PP' = 1/2 x 80 = 40 medium sized leaves plants

P'P' = 1/4 x 80 = 20 small sized leaves.

<em>Hence the phenotypes would be:</em>

<em>20 large size leaves plants</em>

<em>40 medium sized leaves plants</em>

<em>20 small sized leaves.</em>

Addition of a nucleotide onto a dna strand is an endergonic reaction. what provides the energy to drive the reactio
PolarNik [594]
Addition of a nucleotide onto a DNA is an endergonic reaction. In such reactions, the energy is provided by ATP.

ATP is the immediate source of energy for any endergonic reaction occuring in the body. Reactions such as addition of nucleotides are endergonic and anabolic reaction that is, these reactions consume energy which is provided by ATP.
