When you hold your breath for half a minute the carbon dioxide concentration in the blood will?
If you hold your breath, the carbon dioxide concentration in the blood will increase. Carbon dioxide is constantly produced by the body's metabolism, and constantly exhaled. So if it is not exhaled, it will start to build up.
How does minute volume increase with exercise?
The minute respiratory volume also increases from the normal to support high metabolic rate.this leads to more production of carbon dioxide and its concentration in blood will increase.increased breathing will speed the loss of carbon dioxide to maintain a normal Ph.
How many times do kids breath per minute?
Each minute kids take an average of 20 breaths. When you breathe in, your lungs fill with oxygen. When you breathe out, your lungs push out carbon dioxide.
Hypercapnia causes minute ventilation to?
increase as the minute ventilation is the amount of carbon dioxide
What are the 4 gases that make up earths atmosphere?

How do one minute aquatic breath?

How many times per minute does the exchange of carbon dioxide for oxygen in the body normally occur?
12 to 20
What are 4 gases that make the earths atmosphere?
78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, 1% carbon dioxide and other minute gases
What is the total percentage of carbon dioxide breathed out by humans each year?
It would depend on the person's size and how active they are. Find the CO2 rates for an hour during sleep and being awake, multiply them by whatever you need and you'll figure out an annual estimate. However, a rough estimate (curtesy of "The Earth Blog") assuming 12 breaths per minute (resting breath rate) is 500kg The number is easy to estimate: breaths per minute x CO2 per breath x minutes per year From Wiki - the breath rate is 12 to 25 per minute. Size of breath is 500 mL. Percent CO2 exhaled is 4% so CO2 per breath is approx 0.04g ( 2g/L x .04 x .5l). CO2 Per year= 12 x 0.04 x 525600 (minutes per year) = 252kg/yr CO2 (25 breaths) = 525 Kg/yr. So - pick a number between 252 Kg/yr and 525Kg/yr 1000 lbs/year is a good figure of merit.
How much carbon dioxide is used by the human body per minute?
10g every 29.84 seconds=Qouted by famous scientist==albert lewii=
Which planets have atmospheres?
All the planets in our Solar System have atmospheres, except for Mercury, which only has minute traces of gases.
What are the major contributors of carbon dioxide?
Most researchers believe that CO2 (carbon dioxide) is the largest contributor to the greenhouse effect. CO2 is formed in great quantities by the burning of fossil fuels. Many hydrocarbons also play a role som minute quantities have significant effects.
