One difference between mechanical and electromagnetic waves is that mechanical waves need a medium to pass through (solid, liquid, gas). EM waves can travel through matter or though a vacuum. In regards to telecommunications, EM waves can be radio waves, these are used in TV's, phones, computers, radios. Mechanical waves somewhat relate to this since radios produce sound;so an EM wave would turn into a mechanical vibration inside a speaker then sound would be produced.

In a healthy individual, the strongest respiratory stimulus for breathing is
VashaNatasha [74]
During normal breathing, the brain is stimulated to breath with increasing acidity as a result of CO2 concentration from basic metabolic processes. The brain is quite selfish and only really wants to maintain it's pH which should be at a range of 7.3-7.45, and will not tolerate any decrease. 

In patients who have a chronic respiratory disorder with things like COPD. The brain has become accustomed to excessive acidic content, and is now stimulated by the Hypoxic drive or by low oxygen content.

What can be transferred between objects?
tekilochka [14]

Heat can be transferred from one object to another since, If there is a temperature difference between two systems, heat will always find a way to transfer from the higher to the lower system.

Kinetic energy can be transferred from one object to another, when two objects crash. One example of kinetic energy being transferred from one object to another would be a collision of pool balls, Since one ball would hit another causing it to move. Also Kinetic Energy is, “The <u>energy</u> of motion, observable as the movement of an object, particle, or set of particles. Any object in motion is using kinetic energy: a person walking, a thrown baseball, a crumb falling from a table, and a charged particle in an electric field are all examples of kinetic energy at work.”

And last but not least, Thermal Energy which, is often referred to as heat. The thermal energy of matter depends on how fast the atoms or molecules are moving. The faster they are moving, the more thermal energy they possess. Therefore, the temperature of the matter would be higher. Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy. One example of Thermal energy being transferred from one object to another is, Thermal energy from a hot stove is transferred to a metal pot and causes the water molecules to move faster increasing the temperature of the water. Fun fact; Thermal Energy can be transferred in three ways known as, Conduction, Convention, Radiation.
