The easiest way would probably be to measure the rate of formation of CO2 in a hermetically sealed chamber, subtract the rate of a similar chamber but without bugs (the substrate might produce some CO2 on it s own by microbial activity) and divide that by the number of mealworms present. Not a simple experiment to do at home, but not completely impossible either. Throw 100 mealworms in a bottle, no substrate, flush the bottle with CO2-free air (made by passing it through a CaOH solution first), then at T=0 use the outflowing air to precipitate CaCO3 in another bottle of CaOH solution, let it run for an hour, and weigh the resulting precipitate of CaCO3 after filtering and drying. Convert moles CaCO3 to CO2, divide result by 100 and you have the production of CO2 by 1 mealworm in an hour.

The rate of respiration is the number of breaths per minute. All you have to do is count either the number of breaths in OR out (not both) in one minute. To get more reliable results, the experiment should be repeated several times.
oxygen is used for cellular respiration and is used more when metabolic rate increases
The respiration rate is your breathing rate and your pulse rate is your heart beat.
The respiration rate is the number of breaths taken in 1 minute.
I
rate of breathing how many breaths per minute
The rate of respiration is determined by the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood. The main controller of the rate of respiration is the brain.
oxygen effects the rate ofn respiration in plants
Volume of oxygen consumed, Volume of carbon dioxide produced. From this you can calculate the respiratory quotient/rate of respiration.
A respirometer. This is a device used to measure the rate of respiration of a living organism by measuring its rate of exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
The rate of respiration is determined by the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood. The main controller of the rate of respiration is the brain.
