To explain: The way in which tobacco smoking problem can be solved.
Introduction: Smoking affects respiration as they damage alveoli when cigarette smoke is inhaled for prolonged time period. As a result, the alveoli are unable to take part in gas exchange. There are approximately 300 million alveoli that provide large surface area for performing gas exchange. So, if alveoli are damaged due to smoking, the surface area for gas exchange would be decreased, which would cause problems in the breathing process.

- A person is declared to be dead upon the irreversible ceasing of spontaneous body functions: brain activity, or blood circulation and respiration. However, only about 1% of a persons cells have to die in order for all of these things to happen. How can someone be dead when 99% of his or her cells are still alive?arrow_forwardAnimals do not perform photosynthesis; however, it is essential to out survivalarrow_forwardMost of you have seen oak leaves fall on driveways and on streets when fall arrives. These pigments form the leaves leave stains behind when blown away. Oak leaves also contain the water-soluble poison tannin. If you rubbed your skin with oak leaves very little is likely to happen to your skin. Why should it not poison you through the skin?arrow_forward
- Power plants that produce electricity often release CO2 into the atmosphere, which can be dangerous for animal life. Do you think planting more trees would make this problem better or worse? Tell me evidence to back up.arrow_forwardDust can be found if every household, either it contains pets or not such as dogs and cats. It is said that these dusts was “alive” as part of home’s living occupants. Do you think these particles could possibly originate from the human body? Why or why not?arrow_forwardThis is my concept map below,(not a drawing) that connects the digestive, circulatory, and respiratory system. Could you recreate it exactly like that but with more pictures. Rule: don't do it like the second image do it exactly like the first image but with more picturesarrow_forward
- Why is the human body a conductor? a)This is wrong: the human body is not a conductor. b)Nerve cells conduct electricity. c)Calcium is a metal, so the calcium in bones makes the body conducting. d)The body cells contains ions and ions conduct electricity. e)Iron is a metal, so the iron in blood makes the body conducting.arrow_forwardPhotosynthesis is the process of breaking down glucose to produce ATP to fuel activities that occur in living things. producing glucose by fixing atmospheric carbon to broken down water molecules using energy from the sun. catalyzing chemical reactions at a cellular level to speed up bodily functions.arrow_forwardRubisco is sensitive to Oxygen and to Heat. How would you protect it?arrow_forward
- The medical imaging technology magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is used in hospitals and radiology clinics. MRI creates detailed images of the organs and tissues within the body using a powerful magnetic field and radio waves. 1)Even when the MRI machine is not in use, MRI system operators make sure not to bring any metallic objects into the room where the machine is housed. Why? And what happens if a magnet is heated?Elaborate your answerarrow_forwardIn the light reactions ___ is split releasing these three things ____.arrow_forwardIf you wanted to install lights to grow plants indoors the type of light yoy want to use is? Infrared Microwaves Visible light Ultraviolet Gamma raysarrow_forward
