How do moles breath underground?

They are able to survive on much lower levels of oxygen and higher levels of CO2 than other mammals, because of the ability of their blood to carry more CO2.


What were Levels of CO2 in the cretaceous period?

The carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the Cretaceous were 1,700 parts per million. That is 6 times the modern pre-industrial level (the amount of CO2 before the industrial revolution). The higher CO2 levels may have been partially responsible for the warm average temperature during the Cretaceous (4 C [7.6 F] above modern temperature).

What happens the oxygen and carbon dioxide blood levels during asthma?

Depending on how controlled the Asthma is, they could be near-normal levels, or they could be very different. If an asthma patient is having difficulty breathing, or has moderate-severe chronic inflammation, their blood O2 levels will likely be lower than normal, as they cannot ventilate themselves properly, while their cells continue to use the O2 at the normal rate. Likewise, because of the difficulty ventilating, they are likely to retain Co2, and will generally have higher than normal co2 levels.


Why is CS2 a liquid at room temperature whereas CO2 is a gas at room temperature?

Why have carbon dioxide levels in the earth fallen?

Carbon dioxide levels have not fallen. They have been gradually increasing for the past 250 years when man began burning fossil fuels and cutting down trees. Since 1980 CO2 levels have increased more rapidly than ever before.
