Question
Objects deep beneath the surface of the ocean are subjected to extremely high pressures. Some bacteria in these environments have adapted to pressures as much as a thousand times atmospheric pressure. How might such bacteria be affected if they were rapidly moved to the surface of the ocean?

- During inspiration, the volume of the lungs is actively increased by the action of the diaphragm. As the volume of the lungs increases, the pressure within the lungs falls about 1 mmHg below atmospheric pressure. Air rushes into the lungs due to this pressure difference.
