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.

Serhud [2]

Answer: The Bengal tiger and Florida panther are two distinct species if they mate will not be able to reproduce.

Explanation:

A species is a group of organisms that are capable of inbreeding and producing viable fertile offsprings. The members of different species will not be able to mate due to behavioral, morphological, and physiological differences between the phenomena related to this condition is called as reproductive isolation.

The Bengal tiger and Florida panther if mate they may not be able to reproduce viable offsprings due to differences in the physiology of the genital organs and gamete which may not fuse to developing offspring.
