<span>The answer is decreased pulmonary perfusion and decreased cardiac output. Such as high ETCO2 (which is the partial pressure of CO2 in the blood after an exhaled breath- normal levels should be </span>35-45 mmHg), could mean a problem with the respiratory and cardiovascular systems.

Normal PETCO 2 ranges from 20 to 40mmHg. Therefore a value of 50 mmHg is considered high and may be the result of hypoventilation. Tracheal extubation, pulmonary embolism, and total airway obstruction are all possible causes of decreased PETCO 2 values.

olga55 [171]

Answer:

Natural selection.

Explanation:

Imagine in the beginning there was a single species of bird. Naturally, this bird had to expand to the rest of the world, and was distanced as the continents drifted off. But this bird had to cope with various climates and environments. So the bird would gradually mutate over time. The bird in the jungles of central america would develop different colors and a shaped beak, and would better help it survive. This led to being the new normal for birds of this area. It would evolve to cover all the surviving birds in the region, until it is so drastically changed then it is a new species. There are so many different environments, each with its own challenges to overcome, so so many different bird evolve to survive them.
