Answer: Pepsin

Explanation:

Pepsin helps in the degradation of the protein molecules that we intake in the food. Pepsin is the active protein-digesting enzyme in the stomach.

It affects by breaking the peptide bonds that holds the molecules together. The amino acids in the protein molecules are attached to each other by the help of the bond known as peptide bond.

The further digestion of protein takes place in the small intestine by the pancreatic enzyme such as trypsin, chymotrypsin et cetera.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer: Alveoli

Explanation: Alveoli of lungs are surrounded by extensive blood capillaries. The partial pressure of oxygen in the alveoli is higher than the blood entering the pulmonary capillaries, hence oxygen moves into the blood. Carbon dioxide in the lungs simultaneously diffuse out of the blood into the alveolar space.

It is necessary because Oxygen demands need to be reduced.  This may require more aggressive support including the use of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or mechanical ventilation. Newborns born to drug-addicted mothers exhibit hyperirritability, exaggerated reflexes, and transient tachypnea.

Which muscles assist in inhalation when running up the stairs? A) sternocleidomastoid, pectoralis major, scalenes B) sternocleid
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Sternocleidomastoid, pectoralis minor, scalenes

Explanation:

During normal inhalation, contraction of the diaphragm and the contraction of external intercostals expands the chest cavity. The increased volume of the thoracic cavity results in reduced alveolar pressure than the atmospheric pressure to facilitate the flow of air into the lungs in response to the pressure gradient.

During deep inhalation as it occurs when running up the stairs, the accessory muscles of inhalation also participate to increase the volume of the chest cavity. The contraction of scalene and sternocleidomastoid muscles increase the volume of the chest cavity further to create a greater drop in alveolar pressure.

During forceful inhalation, the sternocleidomastoid muscles serve to elevate the sternum, the scalene muscles serve to elevate the first two ribs while the pectoralis minor elevate the third through fifth ribs.
