Hatshy [7]

Respiratory rate increased from 16 to 19 breaths per minute is  vital signs during activity would be the best indicator that the client is tolerating mild exercise.

Your body utilizes more oxygen during exercise and creates more carbon dioxide when your muscles perform harder. Your breathing has to increase from about 15 times per minute while you are resting to about 40–60 times per minute while you are exercising in order to meet this additional requirement. To supply the body with oxygen more quickly, breathing rate rises. To more effectively get the oxygen (and glucose) to the breathing muscles, the heart rate increases. These procedures call for oxygen. Because of this, when an activity is completed, a person's respiration and pulse rate do not immediately return to normal. The oxygen debt is the quantity of oxygen needed to flush out the lactic acid and replenish the body's oxygen stores.

Which of the following Gl and functions as an exocrine and endocrine gland?
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

D. Pancreas

Explanation:

The pancreas is a gland that has several functions, one of the main functions is as an exocrine gland by secreting digestive enzymes, such as amylase and lipase into the GI tract when the food is passing through the duodenum, these enzymes contribute to break down fats and proteins into small portions so these can be absorbed easily by the large intestine. The second most important function of the pancreas is as an endocrine gland during insulin secretion through the islets of Langerhans. Insulin is a hormone that is released in the bloodstream during digestion and it is responsible for regulating blood sugar levels by distributing it in the different organs.
