Typically, when a person coughs, he or she first inhales about 2.20 L of air at 1.00 atm and 25 ∘ C . The epiglottis and the voc

al cords then shut, trapping the air in the lungs, where it is warmed to 37 ∘ C and compressed to a volume of about 1.70 L by the action of the diaphragm and chest muscles. The sudden opening of the epiglottis and vocal cords releases this air explosively. Just prior to this release, what is the approximate pressure of the gas inside the lungs?

Answer:

pressure of the gas inside the lungs will be =1.35 atm

Explanation:

so for calculation of pressure of gas we will use the formula

(remember to convert *C to kelvin)

PV₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂           As we know that Temperature = 310.5 k =37 degree

so for pressure P₂

P₂=P₁V₁T₂/T₁V₂

= ((1.00atm)(2.20L)(310.15K))/ ((298.15K) (1.70L)

=1.35 atm

(remember to convert *C to kelvin)

The mechanical stress applied to bones during moderate physical exercise leads to
Vadim26 [7]

Answer;

-Bone tissue becoming stronger.

The mechanical stress applied to bones during moderate physical exercise leads to bone tissue becoming stronger.

Explanation;

-Bones and muscles both become stronger when muscles push and tug against bones during physical activity.Swimming and bicycling are not weight-bearing activities, so they do not directly help build bones. But swimming and bicycling do help build strong muscles, and having strong muscles helps build strong bones.

-Weight-bearing physical activity causes new bone tissue to form, and this makes bones stronger. This kind of physical activity also makes muscles stronger. Bones and muscles both become stronger when muscles push and tug against bones during physical activity.

Give 2 ways that exposing non-pathogenic bacteria to antibiotics as a side effect of antibiotic treatment for a pathogen may inc
Airida [17]

Answer:

The resistance of the bacteria to antibiotics is increasing and the disease which were easily treatable using the antibiotics, are now incurable and bacteria becomes resistant.  

The overdose and misuse of antibiotics Is a big concern of worry. Every time we use antibiotics, it will kill the bacteria which were sensitive but resistant bacteria will survive and starts growing and this process will increase the growth of the resistant bacteria upon the nest use of the antibiotics.  

Also due to unawareness, the use of antibacterial tablets against viral infections also cause increase in resistance of bacteria against antibiotics.
