Answer:
Option C, Intrapleural pressure is less than intrapulmonary pressure
Explanation:
During inspiration, the air enters the lungs due to lower pressure in the intrapulmonary or intra-alveolar than the atmospheric pressure. During quite respiration, the intrapulmonary pressure reduces to a pressure that is 3 mm Hg lower than that of atmospheric pressure. During quiet expiration, the intrapulmonary pressure rises up to a pressure that is 3 mm Hg higher than that of atmospheric pressure. This leads to lack of air in the intrapleural space thereby producing intrapleural pressure which is lesser than that of intrapulmonary pressure.
This difference in pressure (i.e higher pressure with in the lungs than the atmosphere) causes lungs to remain attached to the chest wall and hence looks inflated.
Hence, option C is correct
Answer:
Leaves are the site of the food making process called photosynthesis. In this process, carbon dioxide and water in the presence of chlorophyll (the green pigment) and light energy are changed into glucose which is sugar. This energy rich sugar is the source of food used by most plants.
Explanation:
The cell membrane allows substances to enter and leave the cell and gives the cell structure.
Aerobic cellular respiration uses O2 to break down glucose molecules into Adenonsine Triphosphate. So yes?
