Answer:

blood ph is increasing.

Explanation:

    Hyperventilation is a quick, deep breath that can take your breath away.

    When you breathe, you inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. Excessive breathing leads to low levels of carbon dioxide in the blood, causing many of the symptoms of hyperventilation.

    You may hyperventilate due to emotional causes such as during a panic attack. However, rapid breathing may be a symptom of a disease such as bleeding or infection.

Trauma can include fatigue, sleep disorders, nightmares, fear of recurrence, anxiety focusing on flashbacks, depression, and avoidance of emotions, sensations, or activities that are associated with the trauma.

you breathe in oxygen and  breathe out carbon dioxide. But when you hyperventilate, the carbon dioxide levels in your bloodstream drop too low. You’ll notice  it right away because you’ll start to feel sick.

Hyperventilation occurs when body breath out more CO2 than the body can produce. With a high blood pH

When human red blood cells are placed in pure water, the cells immediately burst. which process explains what happens to the red
irga5000 [103]
The process of osmosis explains what happened to the cells.

Osmosis is where water molecules will flow from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential, through a partially permeable membrane. Red blood cell is a human cell and have a partially permeable membrane. At the same time, pure water has the highest water potential among all substances, and of course higher than the cytoplasm of the red blood cell, therefore, water molecules will flow from the water to the red blood cell.

So much water has flown to the red blood cells that the cell membrane cannot hold all and eventually the cell bursts. Therefore, the process of osmosis explains this result.

Troyanec [42]

Natural selection is a process by which organisms that are better adapted to their environment tend to D-survive.

A. Better adaptation to an environment doesn't lead to an increase in the size of the organisms. The organisms rather become sturdy and efficient at perform optimally as per the requirement in the environment for their survival.

B. Migration takes place to minimize competition for food, shelter, and space in an environment or a habitat.

C. Organisms that evolve new traits tend to better survive in an environment and natural selection favors such organisms over the inefficient ones.
