Answer:

Increase

Explanation:

As CO2 enters the blood, most of it is converted to the carbonic acid in a reaction catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase. The carbonic acid dissociates into hydrogen ions and bicarbonate ions. As the H+ concentration increases, the blood pH decreases. Thus, the increased partial pressure of CO2 produces a more acidic environment. Increasing the volume of air that reaches the alveoli and takes part in gaseous exchange will increase the rate of removal of CO2 from the blood. The reduced CO2 levels in the blood would increase the blood pH.

Paladinen [302]

The desert that occurs in North America is the Great Basin Desert and it is located at Nevada of North America.

CAM pathway, which is also called Crassulacean Acid Metabolism, is a pathway that involves carbon fixation that occurs in plants growing in arid areas.

With this pathway these plants are able to photosynthesize during the day, but only exchange gases at night.

An arid habitat is an environment that is characterized by extreme lack of water, example is the desert.

In North America, the desert that occurs there is the Great Basin Desert. It spreads into different states which include:

  • Nevada
  • Western Utah,
  • Eastern California, and
  • Idaho.

But the major part of Nevada is occupied by the Great Basin Desert.
