Can humans survive lower temperatures when the pressure is lower

1 answer:

7 0

I think one cannot really separate the lack of oxygen from air pressure. Because the inside pressure balance the outside pressure, if the pressure is low outside, one cannot inhale lots of air without lung injury. Similarly, a scuba diver always inhale air at the pressure associated with its depth. (In consequence divers absorb much more oxygen (and consume more air) in deep water than in shallow water). You may eventually separate air pressure from oxygen if you consider someone who put a single arm or leg in a artificially very low pressure environment

Steps for the phosphorus cycle

aksik [14]

Explanation:

Phosphorus moves in a cycle through rocks, water, soil and sediments and organisms.

Key steps of the phosphorus cycle:

# Over time, rain and weathering cause rocks to release phosphate ions and other minerals. This inorganic phosphate is then distributed in soils and water.

# Plants take up inorganic phosphate from the soil. The plants may then be consumed by animals. Once in the plant or animal, the phosphate is incorporated into organic molecules such as DNA. When the plant or animal dies, it decays, and the organic phosphate is returned to the soil.

# Within the soil, organic forms of phosphate can be made available to plants by bacteria that break down organic matter to inorganic forms of phosphorus. This process is known as mineralisation.

# Phosphorus in soil can end up in waterways and eventually oceans. Once there, it can be incorporated into sediments over time.

Please tell me. What is the consequences of environmental change on different species?

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Climate change leads to a loss of species

Global warming resulting from human emissions of greenhouse gases. The consequences include habitat loss; shifts in climatic conditions and in habitats that surpass migrational capabilities; altered competitive relationships.
