Answer:

B. increase, because the partial pressure of CO2 in the blood will decrease.

Explanation:

The presence of carbon dioxide gas in blood imparts H+ ions due to its reaction with H2O and thereby, lowers down the blood pH.

When more air reaches alveoli, the rate of gaseous exchange is increased. More of the carbon dioxide is removed from the blood and is released out of the body via exhalation.

Removal of carbon dioxide from blood would increase the pH of the blood since the partial pressure of CO2 in the blood would decrease.

Chromosome duplication occurs for the beginning of which process? select all that apply.

Vladimir [108]

The image shows the process of mitosis. The replication of DNA happens at prophase of the mitosis process. This results in the duplication of the chromosomes This is followed by the segregation and division of the duplicated chromosomes into the two daughter cells. The same applies to the meiosis process where the DNA replication and duplication are followed in the same manner as mitosis. Hence the duplication of chromosomes happen at the beginning of both mitosis and meiosis processes.
