What acid-base imbalance occurred with hyperventilation?
When you have too much CO2, you start hyperventilating. What too much CO2 does is that it makes more acid in your blood. This problem is called acidosis. So your blood basically becomes too acidic, which leads to your body needing to remove this CO2 that is causing this.
What two ways people can contribute to too much CO2 in the air?
penius
Is CO2 good or bad for us?
CO2 is not really if mixed with oxygen When you in a enclosed space when breath too much CO2 its harder for you to breath but thus Yes CO2 can be bad for you if you breath it in too much
What are 2 ways people can contribute to too much CO2 in the air?
you become crazy and with a hit of death
How does the body maintain the homeostatic pH of the blood?
CO2 is the body's natural acid, so if your body has too much CO2 it will begin to compensate. Your body "blows off" CO2 through your respiratory system. Increased respiratory rate and depth will "blow off" excess CO2
Why do you get light headed when blowing up balloons?
When you hyperventillate you end up with insufficient carbon-dioxide. The body expects you to have a certain range of CO2 in the blood and when it drops too far the "PH" is in an unbalanced state. Disolved CO2 creates carbonic acid. The blood contains buffers to neutralize the carbonic acid and when the C02 levels drop too much the blood ends up being too alkaline.
How does hypoventilation affect pH?
Hypoventilation is causes an increase in CO2 (carbon dioxide) in your blood. This is caused by the lack of breathing, or obtaining oxygen, (on the contrary, hyperventilation is when your body is gaining too much oxygen - people tell the hyperventalator to breath in a brown paper bag to allow CO2 to bind to hemoglobin). Thus, when people hypoventilate (i.e. causing an increase in CO2) this causes the pH in your blood to decrease, making it more acidic. (and when hyperventilation occurs, O2 is increased, which causes an increase in pH - making blood more basic).
Why is it a problem to have too much co2 in the lunar module?
It is a HUGE deal to have too much co2 in the Lunar Module, because co2 is carbon dioxide. All organisms -except plants- breath oxygen. If you have too much carbon dioxide, and not enough air, you will suffocate to death!
How much CO2 does Japan emit per year?
Too much !
How does too much CO2 in the atmosphere effect the climate?
CO2 is a greenhouse gas. Too much CO2 in the atmosphere will make the climate hotter because it acts like a 'greenhouse' or blanket as it insulates heat in the atmosphere. CO2 allows heat to pass into the atmosphere but it doesn't allow heat to pass out into space. Too much CO2 in the atmosphere would trap the heat in the atmosphere, causing climate change.
How do people get high blood?
too much sodium aka salt in their diet or to much sugar !!
Why does breathing into a paper bag decrease rate of respiration?
B/C people who do this are hyperventilating and expelling too much Carbon Dioxide from their blood. Breathing into a paper bag helps them HYPOventilate to the point where they're calmed. You exhale 17% oxygen, 4% carbon dioxide, 89% nitrogen. The CO2 helps slow the breathing by balancing the right amount of CO2 back into the blood.
