Answer: B. pressure changes in the thorax
Explanation:
The veins are the blood vessels which returns the deoxygenated blood from all the tissues and cells of the body back to the heart. The ventricular systole, venous valves, activity of the skeletal muscles and neural control over venoconstriction all influence the movement of the blood in the venous.
The pressure changes in the thorax occurs due to inspiration and expiration. During the process of inspiration, the diaphragm below the lungs contracts and moves downward while the muscles of the ribs pulls downward. When the size of the thoracic cavity increase the air pressure inside the cavity decreases and vice-versa. The pressure inside the thoracic cavity is not related with the movement of the venous blood as it regulates the exchange of the gases not the blood.
Answer:
Hurricanes are not common in the Midwest. However, if a hurricane is particularly strong, it can move far enough northward and inland to cause a significant rain event for areas in the Midwest.
It looks correct to me. Good job
