The major buffer in blood is composed of the weak acid carbonic acid (H2CO3) and its conjugate base, bicarbonate ion (HCO3 - ).

The normal pH of blood is 7.2-7.4, which is very far removed from the pKa value. The pH is kept in check by the lungs, which remove CO2 via exhalation, and by the kidneys, which excrete acid (H3O ) in the urine. People with impaired lung function are not able to exchange carbon dioxide efficiently between the lungs and air. The result is an increase in the amount of CO2 dissolved in the blood. How does this affe?

Answer:

The increase in the amount of  carbon dioxide in in blood will lead to respiratory acidosis

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide in its normal level between  38 to 42 mm Hg plays vital roles in the human body like regulating the PH of the human blood, breathing regulation and other things. If the amount of carbon dioxide is high more than the range level, it will cause what is called respiratory acidosis.

Respiratory acidosis is a situation in cause by decrease in ventilation i.e Oxygen level leading to increase in carbon dioxide and drop in PH level of the blood.

Suppose that Zonosemata flies whose own wings had been clipped and reattached were attacked more frequently than untreated Zonos
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

(c)-All results for the experimental groups involving wing surgery would be invalid.  

Explanation:

The study researcher shown in the above question noted that flies that underwent wing surgery were more attacked than those that received no wing treatment. However, the researcher does not show the study variables and, consequently, does not show any relationship between the variables and the research result. For this reason, we can state that based on this result, all results for experimental groups involving wing surgery would be invalid.

<h2>Biennial plants</h2>

Explanation:

This plant is a biennial, which means it will just take longer than a season to mature enough to produce flowers.

Since the Sweet William  plant did not flower last year when it was planted and this year also it did not bud till the spring. So, we can assume that these plant will need atleast two seasons to mature hence they are biennials.

Depending on the life span, plants are classified as annuals (one season), biennials(two season) and perennials (more than two years).
