What is heart ablation?
Cardiac ablation is used to eliminate heart arrhythmia ( a disruption in the regularity of the heartbeat ) , caused by improper arrangement or placement within the heart.
How do you control your breathing rate?
For the most part, you don't. Breathing is controlled by a part of the nervous system that is independently controlled by a number of "feedback mechanixms". When your body works harder and your heart speeds up, your breathing follows suit as it tries to maintain your oxygen levels within an acceptable range. There are lots of stories of those who have spent years developing the ability to control their breathing with amazing results, but I haven't met any of them. You can contol your breathing as long as you are concentrating on it; make it smoother, faster, deeper, etc., but as soon as your attention is diverted, your "automatic" mode kicks back in. Good thing, too, or sleep would be impossible.
What is a transmission control solenoid?
Based on information that is generated within the transmission and other sensors in the engine, the solenoid (or any one of them) controls certain functions of the transmission such as changing gears.
Can hurricanes cause earthquakes?
No. Hurricanes are atmospheric phenomena, while earthquakes can only be triggered by processes relatively deep within the earth.
Is Qi oxygen?
Qi or chi is called the life force. Qi does have oxygen but oxygen is not the only Qi. There is different types of Qi, breathing is the most useful Qi since breathing is part of what keeps humans going in every day life. There are different types of breathing you can do to use Qi and develop Qi. So if you look at humans use breathing to get oxygen and release carbon dioxide which trees use to make more oxygen. Within oxygen there is Qi and within carbon dioxide there is Qi. This is why Qi is called the life force. Water also has Qi, food you eat has Qi, and the Body has Qi. There is a meeting point in the body where all 3 meet which is in your stomach, its above the navel. So oxygen and breathing do have Qi but is not the only Qi, its taught that every living and non living thing has Qi. Even when a human or animal may pass on his/her Qi is still here its life force never stops or ends it moves in a different space. They have many books on Qi and development of Qi either for health or martial arts. Hope this helps you to understand, but research of Qi is always in motion.
What controls the chemical processes within a cell?
DNA
Is the autonomic nervous system?
The autonomic nervous system that controls the functions within the body. Some functions that it controls are the heartbeat, digestive system, and breathing. The autonomic nervous system is the part of the peripheral nervous system that acts as a control system. It functions largely below the level of consciousness to control visceral functions.
Which part of your brain controls breathing heartbeat and other functions necessary for life?
The medulla is the lower (or caudal) part of the brainstem, which is just above the spinal cord. Within the medulla are the "vital centers" that control respiration, heart rate, and vascular pressures. The medulla also has many other functions as well.
What is bodily functions?
Bodily functions are essential processes that occur within the human body to maintain health and life. They include activities such as breathing, digestion, circulation, and excretion, among others. These functions are controlled by various systems within the body, such as the respiratory, digestive, and circulatory systems.
What are the main pneumonia symptoms?
Pneumonia can come on rather quickly, within 24 to 48 hours. Symptoms can vary from mild to severe, they can include a cough, difficulty breathing, fever, sweating and shivering, general malaise, rapid heartbeat, loss of appetite and chest pain.
The rate of breathing is controlled by cells within?
the brain
What is the study of the chemical processes within cells?
Biochemistry
Which is the study of the processes within living organism?
biochemistry
How are the processes different?
Since there are billions upon billions of possible processes, this question is not within the human ability to answer. If you specify which processes you are talking about, that will make it answerable.
What is the nucleus job in a cell?
The nucleus controls most cell process and contains the hereditary information of DNA.
Explain the relationship between the processes of breathing and respiration?
Breathing is the process of air moving in and out of the lungs. Respiration is the movement of oxygen from the air into cells within tissues of the body; along with the movement of carbon dioxide from the tissues of the body to the air outside the body.
Which system controls the exchange of gases from within the blood?
Respiratory
