Increasing the volume of air that reaches the alveoli and takes part in gas exchange will cause blood pH to:

Biology

Karolina [17]3 years ago

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.

Xelga [282]

Answer:

I remembered all of these. The information mentioned in the question describes the functions of components of a cell. All the cells in the body perform specialized functions but every cell contains almost the same organelles.

The nucleus is the organelle in which the hereditary material or DNA is present. Ribosomes are the protein manufacturing units of a cell. The golgi complex is involved in the packaging of the proteins. Vacuoles are the storage site of a cell. Mitochondria is the power house of the cell.

What is the same about the electronic structures of lithium and sodium?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Sodium and lithium are in the same group of the periodic table; this is because they both have the same number of electrons in their outer shell (1 as indicted by the group number). this commonality is the reason they have similar chemical properties. As we go down the group however, the electronic structure of atoms of an element changes as that there are a increasing numbers of ‘shells’.

Electron ‘shells’ are filled according to ruled of quantum mechanics however to simplify things in this case the first shell can fit 2 electron, the second 8, and the third shell 8. Lithium has 3 electrons, hence it the first shell is filled, and 1 electron occupies the second shell. Whilst Sodium has 11 electrons, hence its first two shells are filled and the third shell is occupied by one electron.

To expand on this question, the duet/octet rule is a rule in quantum mechanics that observes that main group elements tend to be stable with a full outer shell.

This explains why sodium and lithium is found in the form of Li+ and Na+ ions in nature.

The process of mucociliary streaming involves the removal of particles and pollen by the constant streaming of mucous propelled
olchik [2.2K]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Mucociliary streaming is the process of the cleaning mechanism of the respiratory passage. It is one of the protective process that protects the respiratory passage from the effect of the particles of dust and pathogens before they reach up to the delicate lung tissues. This process maintains the pulmonary hygiene.

This takes the advantage of cleaning up the cilia present in the respiratory tract, this process penetrates the mucous layer of the cilia by wave-like motion. The cilia trap the large and small particles. The instrument used for this purpose moves at a speed of 6 to 20mm per minute. This helps in cleaning up of the cilia along with the mucous.

Which is a characteristic of something in the domain archaea
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Whereas both bacteria and archaea lack a nuclear envelope and membrane-bound organelles, archaea and eukaryotes have similarities beyond those seen between bacteria and eukaryotic cells. Bacteria have the macromolecule peptidoglycan in their cell walls; archaea and eukarya lack this polymer.
