10. Tobacco smoke contains carbon monoxide. What problem does this cause?b. The carbon monoxide combines with hemoglobin in the red cells, reducing the ability of the bloodto carry oxygenc. The carbon monoxide causes lung cancerd. The carbon monoxide cannot be absorbed in the bloodstream, so there is no effect in therespiration of any person.11. During exercise, what happens to breathing in humans?a. The depth of breathing increases and the breathing rate increasesb. The breathing rate increases but not the depth of breathingc. The depth of breathing increases but not the breathing rated. The breathing rate and depth of breathing decreases

10. Tobacco smoke contains carbon monoxide. What problem does this cause? a. The carbon monoxide irritates the airways, causing bronchitis b. The carbon monoxide combines with hemoglobin in the red cells, reducing the ablity of the blood to carry oxygen c. The carbon monoxide causes lung cancer d. The carbon monoxide cannot be absorbed in the bloodstream, so there is no effect in the respiration of any person.

The respiratory system. provides body tissues with oxygen provides body tissues with oxygen and carbon dioxide establishes how many breaths are taken per minute provides the body with carbon dioxide
How would paralysis of the diaphragm alter inspiration? It would prevent contraction of the intercostal muscles It would prevent inhalation because the intrapleural pressure would not change It would decrease the intrapleural pressure and allow more air to enter the lungs It would slow expiration because the lung would not relax.
