What Element irritates skin and lungs?
Chlorine in a liquid form can irritate the skin in a concentrated form, and it can irritate and likely kill a person if they inhale it
The lungs take in oxygenated air and gets it to the blood. It then releases the carbon dioxide out of your body.

What a person has to do when they have blood clogs in lung?
There is no such thing as "blood clogs" therefore they do not have to do anything.
What causes oxygen and carbon dioxide to diffuse in opposite directions?
Simple Diffusion of High to low amount of oxygen and carbon on both sides
Why is oxygen poor blood pumped to the lungs?
The lungs take in oxygen, this oxygen travels down to the alveoli (thin, permeable sacs), which are covered in blood vessels, and the oxygen travels into the blood due to a pressure difference and CO2 goes from the blood to the lungs to be exhaled. The body needs that oxygen for almost every system in the body.
he is goin to die so dont worry about it
What does the lungs do in the respiratory system?
The lungs play an increadably important role in the circulatiory system. Without lungs we would not be alive.
The role of the lungs sounds quite simple though, when you inhale they take in the oxygen and pass it along to the blood flow thorough the bronchi and alveoli.
The red blood cells then make carbon dioxide as a bi-product which is collected up by the bronchi and breathed back out again.
Yes. Demand is low but is increasing in some parts of the country. The last run was printed in 2003.
They have not been and will not be withdrawn from circulation. At such time as the $1 bill is finally phased out in favor of a coin, I would expect to see an even greater use of $2 bills.
Do the lungs contains elastic muscle tissue to permit inhalation?
It actually contains smooth muscle tissue, and alveolar connective tissue. This connective tissue contains collagen fibers for flexibility and strength, and numerous elastic fibers that enable it to be stretched. Alveolar connective tissue is found in the skin and in most internal organs of vertebrates, where it allows the organs to expand, which is essential for the lungs.
Why is the lung narrower that the right lung?
the left lung is narrower than the right lung because of the amount of space the mediastinum (which includes the heart, blood vessels and others) on the left side. the left lung includes a cardiac notch where the heart lies.
Stimulation of the irritant receptors in the lung can result in?
Irritant receptors lie betw
Irritant receptors in more peripheral bronchi are insensitive to mechanical irritants, but they are sensitive to chemical stimuli; the pattern is reversed in the central airways. Reflex effects include bronchoconstriction and hyperpnoea.
Irritant receptors are also sensitive to histamine and can thus contribute to the bronchoconstrictor response in asthmatic subjects in whom histamine is released from mast cells or other cells.
een airway epithelial cells. They are stimulated by mechanical stimuli, inhaled dusts, cold air, noxious gases and cigarette smoke. The receptors show rapid adaptation when they are continuously stimulated. Impulses travel via myelinated fibers in the vagus nerve.
Irritant receptors are also sensitive to histamine and can thus contribute to the bronchoconstrictor response in asthmatic subjects in whom histamine is released from mast cells or other cells.
There was a crop failure. There weren't enough corn to provide the right amount of minerals for the Miyans. :D
He felt betreyed by his Master. He believed he was meant to be the Dragon Warrior, but Master Oogway saw darkness in Tai Lung. The darkness Oogay saw may have been Tai Lung's arrogance. As Shifu says "The mark of a true hero is humility."
Tai Lung was not humble. He knew he was good, and believed it was he who should be whorshipped and respected.
Why would the lung of a fetal pig be contained with air?
Fetal pigs that are prepared for dissection may have the lungs inflated to make them easier to identify and dissect. There is also a chance the piglet was born alive when its mother was slaughtered (fetal pigs come from mother pigs slaughtered for ham/pork) and then euthanized.
