Cellular respiration occurs in the body 24 hours per day. During exercise, the rate of cellular respiration increases. Why does
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

because the body requires a higher supply of oxygen

Explanation:

Cellular respiration can be divided into two different metabolic processes: aerobic respiration which needs oxygen (O2) and anaerobic respiration (without O2). The aerobic cellular respiration is produced when glucose molecules react with O2 in order to form ATP, the energy currency of the cell. Aerobic cellular respiration is the main source for generating ATP. During exercise, the requirement of O2 will be higher because the cellular respiration rate is increased in order to produce more energy (ATP). In consequence, during physical activities, it is required have to breathe faster to supply this O2, which enters into the lungs to be transported to all the cells through blood circulation.

Radda [10]

Answer:

Considering that homeostasis is restored in the patient, his blood pH range would return to normal levels (7.35-7.45), and his hydrogen ion concentration in the blood would normalize. The effect of normalizing the body by getting rid of excess hydrogen ions is achieved by concentrating these ions into the urine for expulsion, therefore increasing the pH levels of urine.

Explanation:

Acidosis is the condition wherein excessive acid build-up within the body causes the blood pH to become lower than normal (normal pH range 7.35-7.45). This may be due to an excessive loss of bicarbonate in the blood, also known as metabolic acidosis, or due to an impairment in the elimination of carbon dioxide in the blood from poor lung function, also known as respiratory acidosis. The body's natural response to acidosis is to increase the breathing rate to eliminate carbon dioxide in the blood, restoring the natural pH of the body.

In people with diabetes mellitus type I, the lack of insulin causes cells to breakdown fat aside from glucose as an energy source. This process produces ketones as a metabolic by-product for energy but also causes the body to be acidic. This is known as diabetic ketoacidosis.
