Why does measuring changes in O2 or CO2 allow you to measure metabolic rate?
Check out the related link to learn more about measuring changes in O2 or CO2 and metabloc rates.
Why do germinated seeds produce carbon dioxide?
Because dry seeds have a very low metabolic rate and do not produce much Co2. Germinating seeds produce more Co2.
What kinds of things put more CO2 into the air?
Volcanism -- volcanoes -- are the greatest source of atmospheric CO2. After this, in varying degrees, are animal respiration, human energy generation, and transportation.
Why does blood hydrogen ion concentration decrease as the body's metabolic rate decreases?
As the body's metabolic rate decreases, the amount of CO2 that is released into the blood stream decreases as well. The reduced amount of free CO2 means that there is less interaction with H20 which in turn reduces the amount of carbonic acid in the blood stream. With less carbonic acid, there is less neutralization, then there is less free hydrogen ions in the blood stream.
How much CO2 ppm do human lungs exhale on average?
It depends on a number of factors such as age, heart rate and depth of breathing. However, on average a human being exhales around 40,000 PPM of CO2.
Oxygen is generated by plants when they split what?
Human cells use oxygen and produce carbon dioxide, CO2, and water, H2O, in their metabolic reactions, whereas plants do the opposite in photosynthesis, in which 6 CO2 combine with 6 H2O to form 1 glucose and 6 O2.
Do plants absorb carbon dioxide?
Plants use CO2 in photosynthesis. They convert CO2 and H2O into carbohydrates through a series of metabolic pathways.
What is cellular production?
Cellular respiration produces CO2 and water as by-products of the metabolic pathway.
How are the metabolic wastes of the human body excreted?
There are a range of different waste products including CO2 and urea. The majority of these are removed in the urine by the kidneys however CO2 is removed in form the blood in the lungs.
Infer how the respiratory system would compensate for a circulatory disorder?
If there is metabolic alkalosis (high pH in the blood) or metabolic acidosis (low pH in the blood), the respiratory system will compensate by either increasing or decreasing the rate of respiration (expulsion or retention of CO2 to bring the blood pH back to within normal limits).
What is the wast of product of respiration?
Cellular respiration produces CO2 and water as by-products of the metabolic pathway.
What is cellular respiration products?
Cellular respiration produces CO2 and water as by-products of the metabolic pathway.
