Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

The normal value range of pH is 7,35-7,45.

If the pH es <u>higher than 7,45</u> we say it is alkalosis and if the pH es <u>lower than 7,35</u> we say it is acidosis. That being said, we can now rule out option B and C.  

Then we have to define <u>respiratory acidosis:</u> it is a decrease of pH because of a high value of PaCO2 (in this case as a result of hypoventilation). The normal range of PaCO2 is 35-45 mmHg.  

So if we take all this in consideration, the only option with a low pH and a high paCO2 is option D.

Imagine that you have been asked to give a short talk on the functioning of the auditory cortex. Make sure NOT to tell your audi
umka21 [38]

The question is incomplete as it lacks the group of choices required to answer this. However, the complete group of choices is as follows:

a. the auditory cortex is located in the two temporal lobes.

b. the auditory cortex in each hemisphere receives information from both ears.

c. the auditory cortex of the left hemisphere receives information only from the right ear.

d. different areas of the auditory cortex are involved in language comprehension and production of language.

Answer:

The correct option is - C. the auditory cortex of the left hemisphere receives information only from the right ear.

Explanation:

In humans and many other vertebrates, the temporal lobe has a part that analyzes or processes auditory information known as the auditory cortex. It is an essential part of the auditory system that plays higher functions in hearing and processing it as switching languages.

The given options are correct so there would be no reason not to tell this to your audience, except option C which is incorrect, speaker should tell the audience that the auditory cortex in each hemisphere gets the auditory information from both ears.
