Answer:

The greatest changes to the path and strength of the Gulf Stream might be caused by an increase in the volume of river water that flows into the Gulf of Mexico (Option B)

Explanation:

The North Atlantic current or Gulf Stream carries warm water from the Gulf of Mexico forward Europe, providing a relative template clime in most of the European occident.

Ocean streams are sensitive to the amount of freshwater available on the surface. An increase in overflow and precipitation over the ocean could slow or revert the north Atlantic current, blocking warm water flow to Europe.

The deposition of freshwater could cause a temporal deceleration or total collapse of the North Atlantic Current, and this interruption might lead to very cold periods in the North Atlantic.

The respiratory structure that contracts and relaxes to allow air to flow in and out of the lungs is the: Group of answer choice
ohaa [14]

The respiratory structure that contracts and relaxes to allow air to flow in and out of the lungs is option(c) i.e, the diaphragm.

<h3>What is the diaphragm?</h3>

The diaphragm, a delicate skeletal muscle that separates the chest from the belly, is located at the base of the chest. When you breathe in, it flattens and shrinks. As a result, the lungs experience a vacuum effect that draws air in. The diaphragm relaxes and the air is forced out of the lungs when you exhale.

signs of diaphragm issues:

  • Acid reflux, heartburn, coughing, and difficulty swallowing.
  • alterations to skin tone (skin may turn blue).
  • rapid heartbeat, pressure in the chest, and/or breathing difficulties (especially when lying down).
  • Headaches.
  • Hiccups that persist or recur frequently.

Patients who need surgery for conditions affecting the chest, including diaphragm issues, are treated by a thoracic surgeon.
