Answer:

The lion's mane jellyfish's skin is so thin that the body receives oxygen through difussion.

Explanation:

The lion's mane jellyfish - giant jellyfish - is the largest species of jellyfish.

This species does not possess a 'usual' respiratory system that would enable to deliver oxygen to its cells. Instead, <u>the lion's mane jellyfish's skin is so thin that the body receives oxygen through difussion. </u>

Thanks to diffusion (<em>oxygen molecules moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration</em>), oxygen that is already dissolved in the ocean then is converted into an equal amount of oxygen inside the jellyfish.

<u>Complete Question:</u>

You volunteer for a sleep study and the researchers discover that your blood oxygen level drops many times during the night. It is likely that you have

A) sleep-onset insomnia.

B) REM behavior disorder.

C) narcolepsy.

D) sleep apnea.

<u>Correct Option:</u>

It is likely that you have "sleep apnea".

Option: D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Sleep apnea is a disorder which is identified by frequent stoppage and breathing start while sleeping. This is due to extreme relaxation of the throat muscles that hinder the normal breathing mechanism leading to reduced blood oxygen levels (recognized as hypopnea).

Throughout a sleep study, the patient's oxygen level is tracked with a pulse oxymeter connected to the hand, finger as well as other parts of the patient. An individual with SA will get a decreased amount of air in inhalation due to irregular breathing patterns while asleep.
