<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

756 mm Hg

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Intrapleural pressure is the pressure of the air within the pleural cavity, between the visceral and parietal pleurae. This pressure changes during different phases of breathing.
  • <em><u>Due to certain characteristics of the lungs, the intrapleural pressure is always lower than, or negative to, the intra-alveolar pressure. It  remains approximately –4 mm Hg throughout the breathing cycle.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Therefore; if the intrapulmonary pressure was 760 mm hg then the intrapleural pressure will be (760 -4) mm Hg, that is 756 mm Hg</u></em>

Oh sweetheart. Leave the person if you're clearly not in love with them as they are with you. You're only hurting yourself, and that other person.
