Air that enters the pleural space during inspiration but is unable to exit during expiration creates a condition called Pneumothorax.

<h3>What is Pneumothorax?</h3>

An abnormal buildup of air in the pleural space between the lung and the chest wall is known as a pneumothorax. Shortness of breath and quick, acute, one-sided chest discomfort are common symptoms .  A tension pneumothorax happens when an area of injured tissue forms a one-way valve, increasing the amount of air in the gap between the chest wall and the lungs.  As a result, there may be an oxygen deficiency that worsens with time and low blood pressure. Obstructive shock is a type of shock that results from this and can be lethal if left untreated.  A pneumothorax can very infrequently affect both lungs.  Although the term "collapsed lung" can also refer to atelectasis, it is frequently used to describe it.

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Option-B

Explanation:

Phototropism refers to the movement of plants in response to light. The mechanism of phototropism involves the photoreceptors which respond to a different wavelength of light: the phytochromes to red light, cryptochromes to blue light and the phototropin to the UV light.

Plants integrate the signals obtained from these receptors and then activates the gene which will be involved in the phototropism.

The gene could be the production of the auxin hormone and the PIN proteins which helps in the distribution of the auxin in the plants. Due to the production of this hormone and its distribution in the shoot, the grass tips bend towards the light.

Thus, Option-A is correct.

the diagram shows the layers of Earth convection currents in which region influence the movement of tectonic plates
kramer

The answer is; Mantle


Convection currents in the mantle drive tectonic plate movements.  The convection currents in this regions are like those of water. The cooler upper mantles sink to the bottom and the hotter lower mantle rises. This circulation causes fiction drag with the overlying crust and therefore causes it to drift.

mars1129 [50]

Answer/Explanation:

<u>Darwin's</u>  <u>theory </u>of evolution refers to how the characteristics and features of a species can change over time. The process of evolution occurs due to <u>natural selection</u>. Natural selection is the mechanism by which organisms that have inherited beneficial traits are more likely to survive and undergo <u>successful reproduction</u>, meaning that variation is passed on to the next generation.

For example, in a species that suffers from overpopulation, organisms will likely have to compete for food and might <u>struggle to survive.</u> However, if a random change in the DNA sequence occurs, it could provide a beneficial effect to an organism that makes it more likely to find food and outcompete others. This makes that individual more likely to survive and reach mating age. This i<u>nheritable variation</u> could then be passed on to that individual's offspring.
