You need to understand the ideal gas equation to solve this question. Sea level pressure should be around 1 atm. So, the calculation would be:

PV= nRT
n= RT/PV
n=  (0.082057 L atm / mol K)  (37+273.15)/ 1 atm (5L*20%)
n=<span>25.4499786 moles</span>

Answer:

n = 0.039 moles

Explanation:

Given that as we know that air content for oxygen are 20%, so as same for lungs which is equals to 1 liter.  

For mole (n) calculation we use

pV = nRT

we know that

10^5 Pa is the pressure(p) at sea level

1 liter or 1000cm^3 or 0.001m^3 is the volume(V) of air

8.314 is the value of R which is molar gas constant

For this equation we need to have temperature(T) in Kelvin (273+37)

273 is the temperature at zero in kelvins + 37 normal human body temperature

Re arranging the equation

n = pV/RT

substituting the values

n=10^5 x 0.001 / (8.314 * (273 + 37))

n = 0.039 moles

klio [65]
Research has demonstrated that neural stem cells have an impaired ability to differentiate into functional neurons when subjected to ethanol. They found out that treating cultured neural system impairs their ability to differentiate in functioning neurons. With this impairment it seems to be united with aberrant, dense methylation and loci which are active in normal tissue.

when algae lives on a slth it is consirered a mutual symbiotic relationship. why is this an exampkle of mutualism
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Algae living on a sloth is considered an example of mutualism because both of them benefit from each other.

Mutualism is one of the symbiotic relationships in which both the two species living together benefit in one way or another. A considerable example of such a relationship is between algae and a sloth.

The algae provide camouflage to the sloth and protect it from predators while the sloth provides shelter to the algae for its growth. The sloth also gets nutrition from algae which perform photosynthesis and synthesize food.

Another mutual relationship is observed between the aphids and ants. Aphids produce honeydew as a waste product of their diet which is consumed by ants. While ants protect the aphids from predators and parasites.

To know more about mutualism, refer to the following link:

What is a true rib, a false rib, and a floating rib? Why are floating ribs easily broken?
andreyandreev [35.5K]
True ribs are ribs that are connected both at the back of the spine and at the sternum in front. false or floating ribs are not connected at the front which gives them less support and thus more easy to fracture.
