Respiration can be detected through several methods, including observing the rise and fall of the chest, using a stethoscope to listen for breath sounds, or employing pulse oximetry to measure oxygen saturation in the blood. Additionally, devices like capnometers can measure the concentration of carbon dioxide in exhaled air, providing insights into respiratory function. Monitoring changes in heart rate and blood gas levels can also indicate respiratory status.
Lime water is used in respiration experiments to detect the presence of carbon dioxide (CO2). When CO2 is bubbled through lime water (calcium hydroxide solution), it reacts to form calcium carbonate, which causes the solution to turn cloudy. This change in clarity indicates that respiration has occurred, as CO2 is a byproduct of the process. Thus, lime water serves as a visual indicator of CO2 production during respiration.
Chemoreceptors, specifically peripheral chemoreceptors in the carotid bodies and aortic bodies, detect changes in blood gas concentrations. These receptors are sensitive to levels of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and pH in the blood and play a key role in regulating respiration to maintain homeostasis.
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen; anaerobic respiration does not use oxygen.
Aerobic Respiration: Respiration that requires oxygen Anaerobic Respiration: respiration that does not use oxygen aerobic respiration is continuous. anaerobic respiration has no new subsrates from photosynthesis to continue. it is usually shorter and not as efficient.
a spider does n a spider does not have a nose, it instead has spiracles which it uses for respiration.
It invoves in respiration. Specifically it is aerobic respiration
Anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen, while cellular respiration does. Anaerobic respiration produces less energy compared to cellular respiration.

Cell Respiration
Cellular respiration need oxygen. This oxygen is supplied by external respiration
Breathing is the mechanical procedure in which air reaches the lungs. The rate of respiration is controlled by a respiratory center in the brain stem that responds to changes in the hydrogen ions and carbon dioxide in the blood.
It is called the respiration. Aerobic respiration takes place in it
