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.

Which type of reproduction results in offspring that are genetically different from the parents sexual or asexual
MariettaO [177]
<span>The answer is a sexual reproduction. This is due to the formation of gametes that enable the variation of the offspring of the parents. Firstly, each gamete contributes half the genetic material (alleles)from either parent. The dominant alleles will show in the phenotype of the c=ofspirng. Additionally, during meiosis (the process that makes gametes), recombination of genetic material can occur hence transferring unique combination of genes from that of the parent. Therefore, there are many possible combinations of gametes that gives the offspring variance from the parents</span>

An organism that is multicellular, heterotrophic, has cell walls, and is unable to move independently would be classified into t
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
Let's see which option fits with each characteristic.

Multicellular, or having more than one cell, could be any of these Kingdoms. These are all eukaryotic kingdoms, and eukaryotes cannot be unicellular.

Heterotrophic, or something that cannot produce its own food, can be all of these except Plantae, plants of this kingdom are autotrophic, as they mainly produce their own food (think photosynthesis).

Having a cell wall applies to all of these except Animalia. Animal cells don't need cell walls, as they don't require such a rigid structure as plants. Animals will typically have other supporting structures, such as bones or hydrostatic skeletons.

Being unable to move applies to all of these Kingdoms except Animalia and Protista (which move using their cilia or flagella). Plantae and Fungi don't have the means to move by themselves.

So, the only kingdom that has not been ruled out by one of the criteria is Kingdom Fungi !

Answer:

Biodiversity may reduce the concentration of carbon in the atmosphere, and that reduction may help to decrease climate change. As we have already explained, plants capture carbon from the atmosphere and accumulate it as carbohydrates in their leaves, stalks, and roots.
