6 0

Answer:

Peristalsis is the right answer.

Explanation:

Peristalsis is a set of wave-like brawn tensing that transfers food to various processing channels in the digestive tract. The method of peristalsis occurs in the esophagus while a bolus of the meal is consumed. The powerful wave-like movements of the soft muscle in the esophagus bring the food to the stomach, where it is mixed into a watery mixture known as chyme.

Increasing the volume of air that reaches the alveoli and takes part in gas exchange will cause blood pH to:
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Increase

Explanation:

As CO2 enters the blood, most of it is converted to the carbonic acid in a reaction catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase. The carbonic acid dissociates into hydrogen ions and bicarbonate ions. As the H+ concentration increases, the blood pH decreases. Thus, the increased partial pressure of CO2 produces a more acidic environment. Increasing the volume of air that reaches the alveoli and takes part in gaseous exchange will increase the rate of removal of CO2 from the blood. The reduced CO2 levels in the blood would increase the blood pH.
