The respiratory system is one way of heat exchange in the human body and a higher external temperature makes this less efficient. As heat goes up, the rate of respiration increases as well, putting a higher strain on the lungs.

What effects the rate of respiration in plants?

Factors that affect the rate of respiration in plants include temperature, availability of oxygen, and the presence of sugars or other organic compounds that can be broken down for energy. Light intensity and the plant's metabolic activity can also influence respiration rates.


What is relationship between temperature and respiration rate?

The relationship between temperature and respiration rate is typically positive, meaning that as temperature increases, the respiration rate also tends to increase. This is largely due to the fact that higher temperatures can enhance metabolic processes, leading to faster cellular respiration. However, extreme temperatures can have detrimental effects, potentially slowing down respiration if they exceed optimal levels for an organism. Overall, within a certain range, warmer temperatures generally promote higher respiration rates.


Does temperature affect breathing of chick peas?

You probably mean "respiration" instead of "breathing". Chick peas don't breath. Increasing the temperature increases the respiration rate and decreasing temperatures decrease the respiration rate.


What can be said about the effect of temperature on the cellular respiration of crickets?

Yes. Cellular respiration produces ATP, which crickets need so survive, since it is the main way energy is stored in living things. If crickets could not carry out cellular respiration, they would not be alive.


In ground squirrels as body temperature decreases what does the respiration rate do?

decreases


Which of the following statements is TRUE?

Socialism offers more freedom than communism.


In this activity you are investigating both the effect of germination versus non germination and warm temperature versus cold temperature on respiration rate identify two hypotheses being tested?

The hypotheses being tested are the effect on the respiration rate. In this case the two are warm temperature vs. cold temperature & germinating vs. non germinating. (temperature & germination)


Why is temperature a factor of cellular respiration?

Temperature can effect enzymatic action of all cellular activities to a great degree. Typically increasing the temperature will stimulate enzymes while decreasing it will hinder their activity. If the temperature is too high the protein enzymes will denture and become useless. If the temperature is too low the activation energy required to initiate enzyme action will not be able to be overcome and the enzymes will be rendered inoperable.


What are plants respiration rate?

Plant's respiration rate is affected by many different factors, including tissue age, temperature, oxygen, carbon dioxide, damage, lack of water and available sugars.


What does a victim with heatstroke usually have?

These victims will have an elevated temperature, dry skin, and a low respiration rate.


How do changed in temperature and activation energy compare in how they affect reaction rate?

Changes in temperature and activation energy have opposite effects on reaction rate.


Which of these are part of vital signs A height and weight B pulse heart rate C temperature D blood pressure E respiration rate F medication review Choose all that apply?

When your nurse or doctor checks your vitals. They are checking your pulse (heart rate), temperature, blood pressure and respiration rate. These are considered the vital signs.
