Answer: The given statement is true.

Transport of oxygen from the air takes place through respiratory system. Oxygen from air ( that is taken from the atmosphere) enters via a system of tubes, into our lungs and then it is released into the bloodstream ( to serve in various organs) whereas opposite route is followed by CO2 ( carbon dioxide).

In the respiratory tract, the nose is lined by mucosal epithelium that possessed glands ( which secrete thick mucus). Due to this, air is moistened.  Beneath the epithelium surface, there lies  network of blood vessels that help in warming the nasal cavity and thus the air is warmed.

Well, in my own personal case, I can actually move the air in either
direction through both of those.

When I move the air inward from the outside, it's warmed and moistened.

When I move it outward from the inside, it's not.

What is electricity?
quester [9]

Answer:Electricity is the flow of electrons. All matter is made up of atoms, and an atom has a center, called a nucleus. When electrons are "lost" from an atom, the free movement of these electrons constitutes an electric current. Electricity is a basic part of nature and it is one of our most widely used forms of energy.

A 6.5 l sample of nitrogen at 25◦c and 1.5 atm is allowed to expand to 13.0 l. the temperature remains constant. what is the fin
ollegr [7]
Since the temperature of the gas remains constant in the process, we can use Boyle's law, which states that for a gas transformation at constant temperature, the product between the gas pressure and its volume is constant:
pV=k
which can also be rewritten as
p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2 (1)
where the labels 1 and 2 mark the initial and final conditions of the gas.

In our problem, p_1 = 1.5 atm, V_1 =6.5 L and V_2 =13.0 L, so the final pressure of the gas can be found by re-arranging eq.(1):
p_2 = p_1  \frac{V_1}{V_2}= (1.5 atm) \frac{6.5 L}{13.0 L}=0.75 atm

Therefore the correct answer is
<span>1. 0.75 atm</span>
