The respiratory rate is driven by question 4 options:

1 answer:

6 0

The correct answer is a. increased pCO2, decreased pH, decreased pO2.
<span>
Respiration is stimulated by high levels of pCO2 in the blood which are registered by chemoreceptors in the medulla of the brain. Because of the excessive CO2 in the blood, the pH is falling and when this occurs, the respiratory rate is stimulated to increase. In the condition of hypoxia, the chemoreceptors are more sensitive to O2 than to CO2. As the O2 levels in the body drop, the respiratory drive is stimulated.</span>

<span>>Reasons for increased transmission from children
</span> The research pointed three causes.
1. Children are more exposed to different people in different places. their households, peers in schools and other children.

2. Children especially preschools are said to have lower immunity which makes them prone and catching influenza.

3. Lastly, viral shedding among children can alleviate and spread period of infection.

Where is long-wavelength radiation created?

Ivahew [28]

On the earth surface

Explanation:

The long-wavelength radiation is created on the earth surface when electromagnetic radiation is re-emitted.

The sun releases radiation in form of short-wave.
They are usually more energetic and with short wavelength and a high frequency.
When they interact with materials on the earth, they are radiated back as long-wavelength radiation that usually causes heat.
Ultraviolet rays and other high energy waves are emitted from the sun because it is a very hot body.
When these radiations enters the earth, they are re-radiated back as long waves with lower energy.
Earth is cooler than the sun
When some of the short waves for example, the ultraviolet rays gets to the surface, it is absorbed and re-radiated back.
When the short waves are absorbed, they lose some of their their energy to the earth surface.
The remainder is radiated back as less energetic long waves.
The hotter a body is, the more energetic the radiation it releases.
