The correct answer is option They need more oxygen to function, so gas exchange needs to increase.

As the person starts a physical exercise, the workload of the muscles increase, which produces a higher demand of ATP. In order to produce ATP, the mitochondria require more oxygen and glucose to generate the ATP molecules, as a result, the demand for the oxygen is increased. Due to increase in oxygen demand, the lungs do more gaseous exchange, so that the demand of the oxygen can be fulfilled.

olga2289 [7]

The long bundle of neurons that carries messages to and from the body to the brain and is responsible for very fast, lifesaving reflexes is called the<u> spinal cord. </u>

<h3>What is the espinal cord?</h3>

There are two organs involved in the central nervous system that function as control centers,

  • The brain,
  • The spinal cord.

The spinal cord is a nerve tube placed in a hollow space left between vertebras along the vertebral column. The vertebrae's body protects the spinal cord.

It is made of nerves that take orders from the brain to the rest of the body and send messages from the body to the brain.  

Reflexes acts are produced in the medulla, and the brain is not involved.

The nervous cells of the medulla have fibers that extend from the medulla to the body and are connected to sensory receptors.

When receptors receive stimuli, they send information to the nerve fibers, which take it to the brain. From the brain, they send a response.

The answer is spinal cord.

Describe what will happen to the wave as it goes through the hole. what do we call this?​
kari74 [83]

Diffraction occurs when a wave moves through an opening in a barrier. This causes the wave to change direction and spread out.

Waves can behave in three different ways depending on the obstacles they encounter. They can reflect, refract or diffract. In diffraction, waves such as sound, light or water either bend around small objects that obstruct their passage or spread out as they travel through a gap in the barrier.

The degree of diffraction forms a direct relationship with wavelength. It generally increases as wavelength increases. Conversely, the amount of bending lessens as wavelength decreases. However, if the opening of the barrier is smaller than the wavelength, the effect of diffraction is not easily observed. Hope this helps.
