Why does your boyfriend argue with you then with the people who cause us problems?

There are two interpretations of your question: 1. Why does my boyfriend argue with me first and then argue with the people who cause us problems? 2. Why does my boyfriend argue with me rather than with the people who cause us problems? Which is it?

Function of cartilage in the respiratory system?

Cartilage in the respiratory system (usually found in the trachea and some small amounts in the bronchi), is to act as a way to keep the passageways open.

What happen to air as it passes along the upper respiratory tract?

As air passes along the upper respiratory tract, it is warmed, moistened and filtered. The mucous membranes and cilia help these processes.

What is aerobic power?

Aerobic power refers to the maximum amount of oxygen a person can take in during exercise. Aerobic power is also called aerobic capacity.

Why is the epiglottis important to breathing?

Answer #1

When we Breathe, the epiglottis moves to allow air into the lungs.

Answer #2

keeps food from going into your lungs

What is aerobic excercise?

aerobic exercise includes running, jogging, jumping jacks, Regular day stuff nut it helps you use your muscels for a long period of time. Kids should do pull ups and push ups at least 3 times a day which i aerobic excercise too. Unlike anaerobic its better you can do it everyday. It helps your muscels more than anaerobic excercise

Is the larynx a part of the respiratory system explain?

Yes, the larynx is part of the respiratory system because it contains the vocal cords that produce sound during breathing. It also plays a role in protecting the lower airway from foreign particles by closing off the airway during swallowing.

Does trachea take in oxygen?

Neither trachea nor bronchial tree take in any oxygen from the air. It gets oxygen via blood supply.

Why is the pulmonary circulation reduced in the human fetus?

Pulmonary circulation is reduced in the human fetus because the lungs are not yet functional for oxygen exchange. Instead, much of the oxygen comes from the placenta via the umbilical vein and bypasses the lungs through the ductus arteriosus and foramen ovale. This allows the fetal lungs to remain collapsed and prevents excessive blood flow through the non-functioning pulmonary circulation.

What size particles are most dangerous to breath?

First of all this a bioscience question and not a particle physics question. Particle physics deals with the study of the properties of various subatomic particles. These particles cannot be seen by your eyes or a microscope. You would need a electron microscope or a more powerful instrument to see and study a particular particle. So please ask your question in the biology category.

Normal respiratory rate for a 17 year old male?

Respiratory rate, which is also called breathing rate, is the same for teens as adults. There should be between 12 and 16 breaths per minute. However, as a child enters later teens his/her resting breathing rate should decrease slightly from what it was in his/her early teens.

What is anoxia?

Anoxia is a condition charactised by an absence of oxygen supply to an organ or a tissue.

What are the similarities between aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration?

In both aerobic respiration oxygen is used up while in anaerobic respiration oxygen is noy used up i.e. energy is produced without the consumption of oxygen.

If we talk about in biological process then in aerobic respiration glucose is burnt in the presence of oxygen to release energy producing 38 ATP producing carbon dioxide and water.While in anaerobic respiration glucose or any other substrate is burnt without the peresence of oxygen producing 2 ATP of energy and generally alcohol(ethyl alcohol) is produced.

the similarity between them is that in both process substate is burnt to release energy.Secondly, both are continuous and occur with some specified steps.

BY PINK GURL :

IN AEROBIC RESPIRATION THERE IS AN INTAKE OF OXYGEN , LARGE AMOUNTS OF ENERGY IS RELEASES AND THERE IS COMPLETE BREAKDOWN i.e if there are 3 O2 molecules then all these molecules will break .

IN ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION , THERE IS NO INTAKE OF OXYGEN , IT PROVIDES ONE WITH LESS ENERGY AND THERE IS NO COMPLETE BREAKDOWN.

THE SIMILARITY OS THAT BOTH RELEASE ENERGY AND BOTH ARE A TYPE OF RESPIRATION

What is the major function of the respiratory system is to?

Its called as breathing. That means to take the oxygen in from the fresh air and to give out the carbon bi oxide back to the air. ( If there is no fresh air out side, respiratory system suffers.)

What is aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration?

Aerobic means respiration that occurs with oxygen and anaerobic means without oxygen. They are both used by different muscles in our bodies. Aerobic is used by Fast Twitch Type B, and anaerobic by Fast Twitch Type A and Slow Twitch muscles.

What cause the difference in the amount of air you inhale and exhale?

Lungs alveoli has very large surface area, about 100 square meters. So air is fully saturated with water vapor and so it is more in amount.

Can any parts of the respiratory system be removed without causing death?

No, removing essential parts of the respiratory system such as the lungs or the trachea would likely result in death as these organs are vital for breathing and oxygen exchange. Non-vital structures like the tonsils or parts of the nasal cavity can be removed without causing death.

What happens when the internal balance of the human body system is distributed?

A disruption in the human body system that leads to a corresponding disruption in homeostasis, become ill and die

What happens anatomically to a person's respiratory system if he has a Chronic Heart Failure?

The heart does not stop working.

When this happens the blood just doesn't move efficiently through the body.

How do passive aggressive people cause problems in a marriage?

Passive aggressive people are usually quiet, have few opinions about anything and detest confrontations of any sort. They would rather have their mate or someone else do their dirty work, and if things go wrong, then the passive-agressive person will blame that person. If you are married to one, or even dating one, they can actually drive you around the bend. In other words, get ready to treat them like children because you aren't going to get too much support in making important decisions and don't count on them re taking care of business. You'll be doing it all! Marcy
