An increase in volume DECREASES the pressure in the chest (pressure and volume vary inversely when temperature is held constant -- Boyle's law). Gas can only flow from an area of higher pressure to an area of lower pressure. It can't go uphill -- ever. It can only go from high to low pressure. When the diaphragm and intercostals contract, the diaphragm flattens and the rib cage rises. That increases the volume of the chest. That increase in volume decreases the pressure inside the chest (temperature is held constant -- because the temperature of the chest cavity does not change appreciably. It remains at body temp.). Air then flows from the area of higher pressure (atmospheric) to lower pressure (intrathoracic). That continues until the pressures are equal.
When the diaphragm and intercostals relax, the chest cavity decreases in size, the pressure increases to above atmospheric, and gas flows again from the area of higher pressure (intrathoracic) to lower pressure (atmospheric) until they are again equal.
It has nothing to do with the concentration of oxygen. You can ventilate a lung with ANY gas. It has to do with the change in pressure and only the change in pressure -- which is a function of the volume of the chest cavity.
Newton's law of gravity helped to change the initial view that the Universe was supported by some mystical force or object.
<h3>What did Newton say held the Solar system together?</h3>
Newton's explanation that the Solar system was held together by the force of gravity helped to explain so many observation which were not explained before.
Newton's explanation that objects were attracted to one another by the force of gravity helped to change the view that the Universe was held together by some mystical or magical force or that the earth and other planets were supported on something.
Therefore, Newton's law of gravity helped to change the initial view that the Universe was supported by some mystical force or object.

The type of solution in each beaker based on cell's reaction are :
- Isotonic solution : Normal reaction
- Hypotonic solution : The cell becomes turgid
- Hypertonic solution : The cell becomes deformed
<h3>Matching each solution to the cell reaction </h3>
When the red blood cell is placed in an isotonic solution the solvent flows in and out of the blood cell at the same rate, when the cell is placed in a hypotonic solution the solvent flows into the cell at a faster rate causing the cell to swell ( becomes turgid ) also when the cell is placed in a hypertonic reaction the cell becomes deformed becomes it loses more water than it absorbs.
Hence we can conclude that The type of solution in each beaker based on cell's reaction are : Isotonic solution : Normal reaction, Hypotonic solution : The cell becomes turgid, Hypertonic solution : The cell becomes deformed

Deoxyribonucleoside Triphosphate, which is the more specific form of Deoxyribonucletides.
When DNA is synthesised by DNA polymerase by complimentary base pairing, 2 phosphate groups from Deoxyribonucleoside Triphosphate breaks away, releasing energy from the binding of the Deoxyribonucleotide to the adjacent Deoxyribonucleotide molecule via phosphodiester bond. These molecules will be called Deoxyribonucleoside Monophosphates.
Thus, the general name of the building block of DNA is Deoxyribonucleotide, and the more specific names depend on at which stage of DNA replication you are referring to.
Hope this helps! :)

LINDA-ALLEN | CERTIFIED EDUCATOR
Cornelius Agrippa (1486-1535) was a German mystic who practiced a "science" that combined alchemy, magic, mysticism, and astrology. Two of his books are Three Books of Occult Philosophy and On Calling Spirits. Through the writing of Agrippa, Frankenstein becomes very interested in alchemy, which is a pseudoscience whose main object is to find a way of turning base metals into gold. You could say that Frankenstein adapted the thinking of the alchemists and instead of transforming other metals into gold attempted to transform a corpse into a living being.
An interesting story about Agrippa concerns sightings of him after his death:
There were rumors that Agrippa had summoned demons on his death bed, and that a black dog roamed the countryside as his familiar. The black dog appears in tales as Faustus, Mephistopheles, and even as a grim in the Harry Potter series.
