Answer:

The purpose of respiration is to supply the body with oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide. Oxygen is essential for cellular respiration as cells cannot exist in the absence of it. The human lungs are the organs responsible for respiration.

Explanation:

Respiration refers to a person’s breathing and the movement of air into and out of the lungs. The respiratory system provides oxygen to body tissues for cellular respiration, removes the waste product carbon dioxide, and helps maintain acid–base balance. Inspiration is the process that causes air to enter the lungs, and expiration is the process that causes air to leave the lungs . A respiratory cycle (or one breath while you are measuring respiratory rate) is one sequence of inspiration and expiration.

A forward reaction in which adding heat decreases product formation is _________, while a forward reaction in which adding heat
ELEN [110]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. <span>A forward reaction in which adding heat decreases product formation is exothermic, while a forward reaction in which adding heat increases product formation is endothermic. Exothermic would mean that heat is being released by the process while the opposite is called endothermic in which it absorbs heat.</span>

Explain the difference between ecosystem, community, and population.
Studentka2010 [4]

Out of the three you gave ecosystem is what I would call the most broad. An ecosystem includes living AND non-living things in an area

Community is all the LIVING things in an area (plants are included and I think bacteria is too, but I'm not sure)

Population is pretty narrow it just looks at specific species in one area. Population of mosquitoes doesn't include butterflies, if only looks at mosquitoes

Hope this helped!

Explain how energy is conserved between this reaction and the and surrounding environment C3H8+4O2-&gt;3CO2+4H2O+ heat (-2218.6)
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The heat of formation = Heat of formation of the products - Heat of formation of the reactants

= -2323 + 104 = -2219 ≈ -2218.6 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that the total energy is constant in any process. Energy may change in form or be transferred from one system to another, but the total remains the same

The heat of formation of C₃H₈ is 3C + 4 H₂ → C₃H₈ \Delta H^{\circ}_f  -104 kJ/mol

The heat of formation of O₂ is O₂ (g) → O₂ (g)  \Delta H^{\circ}_f  0 kJ/mol

The heat of formation of H₂O is H₂(g) + 1/2 O₂→ H₂O (g)  \Delta H^{\circ}_f  -286kJ/mol

The heat of formation of CO₂ is C (s) + O₂ (g) → CO₂ (g)  \Delta H^{\circ}_f  -393 kJ/mol

Therefore, in the given  reaction we have;

C₃H₈ + 4 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

The heat of formation = Heat of formation of the products - Heat of formation of the reactants

The heat of formation = 3 × (-393) + 4 × (-286) - (-104) = -2219 ≈ -2218.6 kJ/mol.
