Number of breaths required to burn 2.5 kg mass of fat is 175000 breaths.

<h3>What mass mass of carbon dioxide is in one breath?</h3>

The mass of carbon dioxide in one breath is calculated as follows:

  • Mass = volume * density

Volume of Carbon dioxide in one breath = 4% * 500

Volume of Carbon dioxide in one breath = 20 mL = 2 * 10⁻⁵ m³

Density of carbon dioxide = 2.0 kg/m³

Mass of carbon dioxide in one breath =  2 * 10⁻⁵ m³ * 2.0 kg/m³

Mass of carbon dioxide in one breath =  4 * 10⁻⁵ kg

Mass of carbon dioxide to be exhaled to burn 2.5 kg of fat = 2.8 kg * 2.5 = 7 kg of carbon dioxide.

Number of breaths required = 7 kg/4 * 10⁻⁵ kg

Number of breaths required = 175000 breaths

In conclusion, the mass of carbon dioxide in one breath determines the number of breaths required to burn 2.5 kg of fat.

The energy of an electron can be change only by set amounts.

The electrons in an energy level of an atom can only move to a higher or lower energy level only if it absorbs or emits a certain amount of energy. If the electron does not have enough energy to move to the next energy level then it will never move.

Anabolic reactions _______ bonds, whereas catabolic reactions __________ bonds. A. decrease; increase. B. break; make C. weaken;
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The corrext answer is E. make; break

Explanation:

In living organisms, the metabolism is either anabolic or catabolic where anabolic metabolism is energy consuming and catabolic metabolism is eneegy releasesing. It should however be noted that anabolic reaction builds or biosynthesize new mollecular structures while catabolic reaction breaks down complex structure bonds into simple structures

The braking down of bonds in catabolic reations realeses energy to sustain the anabolic rection process for the formation of new bonds
