Answer:
Increasing the alveolar ventilation rate will increase the partial pressure of oxygen in the alveoli.
Explanation:
Alveolar Ventilation rate is the rate of air flow in the alveoli of the lung during normal breathing. It is measured in milliliters of air per minute (mL/min). The alveolar ventilation rate is an important factor in determining the concentrations (partial pressures) of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the functioning alveoli.
A high rate of alveolar ventilation, would result in a rapid influx of oxygen-rich air and efflux carbon dioxide-filled air from the alveoli. This ultimately results in an increase in the concentration of oxygen and a decrease in the concentration of carbon dioxide within the alveoli.
Effects of alveolar ventilation on partial pressures of alveolar carbon dioxide and oxygen (PACO₂ and PAO₂)
If the alveolar ventilation rate is increased (and carbon dioxide production is unchanged), then the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the alveoli, PACO₂ will decrease.
If the alveolar ventilation rate increases, then the partial pressure of oxygen in the alveoli, PAO₂ will increase.
During DNA replication, the hydrogen bonds must be broken between the complementary nitrogenous bases in the DNA double helix
Answer
Lamarckism, a theory of evolution based on the principle that physical changes in organisms during their lifetime—such as greater development of an organ or a part through increased use—could be transmitted to their offspring.
Lamarck believed that the stretching elongated the giraffe's neck, which became a useful characteristic and was passed onto future generations. This resulted in the length of the giraffe's neck increasing over time. It is now commonly accepted that Lamarck's ideas were wrong.
Answer: B) proteins in the membrane act like gates to control entrance and exit of molecules.
Explanation: Plasma membrane is composed of phospholipids bilayer in which the hydrophobic regions of the phospholipids face each other to form the core of the bilayer. Proteins are embedded in the bilayer through an interaction between the amino acid side chains and the nonpolar acyl chains of the phospholipids. The embedded membrane proteins form channels for passage of ions and other molecules. Each membrane protein is selected for one or more ions or molecules that passes through it. The membrane is said to be semipermeable because it allows the passage of some molecules and excludes the passage of others.
Answer: we classify organisms to group living beings who share the same characteristics or who have common attributes
Explanation: So, since the late '60s and based on the proposal of the researcher Robert Whittaker, most biologists group living beings into 5 large groups called Kingdoms, based mainly on three characteristics:
* type of cell,
* number of cells in each organism and
* the way of obtaining energy.
As a result, we could have 5 kingdoms; and these kingdoms are:
Monera, represented by the microorganisms of prokaryotic type known colloquially as "bacteria"
-Fungi, represented by mushrooms
-Plantae, the kingdom of the plants
-Animalia, the kingdom of the animals, and
-Protist, a very diverse group of organisms of eukaryotic type.
