Abnormal breath sound that can be heard in emphysema patient would be wheezing.

Wheezing would be a high-pitched sound that can be found in emphysema, COPD or asthma. In emphysema, the air will be trapped because of the airway is obstructed due to inflammation.
The patient will have a longer expiration phase and increased chest size. Increased air in the lung will cause the breathing sound to be diminished.

The molecular shape of the molecules is one of the important characters of the molecules. It is important due to the fact that molecular shape determines how a molecule will react and interact with other molecules.

The shape of the molecules determines boiling point, melting point as well as various chemical reaction by determining the bonds. For instance, H2O or water has a tetrahedral shape which affects its bonding and properties. If molecules were linear in shape there would be no life existed.

Thus, the correct answer would be - C)
