1.It will release carbon dioxide in the atmosphere through respiration.
3.Its feces will contain carbon that will enter the geosphere.
Explanation:
The dog is a consumer and cannot perform photosynthesis. They take up oxygen and release carbon dioxide. This way, the carbon present in his food products is transferred to the atmosphere as a byproduct of the cellular respiration process. The feces of the dog contain the complex wastes of food, which can be decomposed by the bacteria and other decomposers and the carbon present in it enters the geosphere.
The dog cannot convert the carbon in a form of energy used by plants and dog also cannot decompose.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a disease in which there is obstruction of the lungs which makes it difficult for the person to breathe and there is an improper flow of the air in the respiratory tract.
The disease management involves a proper diet which should have a high amount of proteins in it.
A high protein diet is recommended for the patients as this leads to the strengthening of the muscles involved in the respiration and thus, avoids wasting and slows down the progressive worsening of the disease.
Further, the high protein diet also helps to strengthen immunity and prevents infections of the respiratory tract.
The proteins also provide more energy as sufferers of the disease also have difficulty performing activities such as walking, running, etc due to shortness of breath.
