Yawning is a reflexive action that is often associated with sleepiness. when a person yawns, the mouth opens, and a longer than

normal breath of air is inhaled, followed by a longer than normal exhalation. hypothesizing that yawning has a regulatory mechanism similar to breathing, scientists conducted an experiment on college students to test the effect of ambient carbon dioxide levels on yawning. the scientists investigated carbon dioxide levels in their experiment because high carbon dioxide levels in the ________ signal control centers in the brain to increase rate and depth of inhalations and exhalations.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer in the blank is arterial blood.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The elevated levels of CO2 in the arterial blood signals the brain to increase the rate and depth of inhalations and exhalations.

1. Based on the examples in the table, how do opinions differ from facts?
baherus [9]

1. Opinions are not always right; facts are.

2. Theories are sometimes right, but sometimes they are either wrong or a little off; facts are on point and with the exact answer.

3.  A theory is a scientific explanation of a fact.

4. They all have a good amount of information; also they say approximately to let you know it's not the exact answer.

5. A law is more like a prediction of what will happen if the situation is given and it's shown by the mathematical equation; Theory describes what happens. (Happened).

6. This would try to go against my understanding but it won't happen because I know that theories don't become laws or vice-versa; theories remain theories and law remain laws.
