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.

What is a normal respiration rate of elephant?

Can someone live with a respiration rate of zero?
no
What is a cats respiration?
A cat's respiration is its breathing. A cat's respiratory rate is normally anywhere from 30-100 breaths per minute
What happens to an animal's body when it hibernates?
they go to sleep and don't wake up for a long time
Why do animals have higher rate of respiration than plants?
This is very simple. Animals do use(inhale-exhale) muscles(rib muscles and diaphragm) when breathing, but respiration in plants can be considered as only a chemical reaction, nothing more. This is why animals lose more energy through respiration.
What is a disadvantage of anerobic respiration?
The disadvantage is that anerobic respiration produces less energy than aerobic respiration, and as a result the organism grows at a much slower rate.
How is the heart rate controlled by the nervous system in an intact organism?
By the vagus nerve.
What is a example of controlled variable?
A controlled variable is a setting where the dependent variable is not controlled by the independent variable. For example, if you were trying to measure the rate of movement in an organism in highly salty concentrations, a controlled variable would include the organism in an environment with no salt at all.
What rate at whichfood and oxygen in a cell are used up an waste products produced?
You are referring to aerobic cellular respiration. The rate at which aerobic respiration occurs in a cell depends on the type of cell and the activity level of the organism. An organism (including humans) would need aerobic respiration to take place rapidly when it is active because it needs more energy, but not as rapidly when it is at rest when it needs less energy.
What determines the rate at which food and oxygen in a cell are used up and waste products produced.?
You are referring to aerobic cellular respiration. The rate at which aerobic respiration occurs in a cell depends on the type of cell and the activity level of the organism. An organism (including humans) would need aerobic respiration to take place rapidly when it is active because it needs more energy, but not as rapidly when it is at rest when it needs less energy.
How effectively the body uses the oxygen you breathe in is measured by the?
A respirometer. This is a device used to measure the rate of respiration of a living organism by measuring its rate of exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
What are the 2 connections between respiration rate and pulse rate?
The respiration rate is your breathing rate and your pulse rate is your heart beat.
What is respiration rate?
The respiration rate is the number of breaths taken in 1 minute.
What is the normal human respiration rate what are the factors affecting respiration rate in humans?
I
Why is respiration rate closely linked to enzyme activity in the cells of an organism?
Cellular respiration is a process that requires oxygen. So when you breathe you take in oxygen to that your mitochondria can use it to create ATP.
The rate of respiration is determined by what levels in the blood?
The rate of respiration is determined by the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood. The main controller of the rate of respiration is the brain.
What effects the rate of respiration in plants?
oxygen effects the rate ofn respiration in plants
