Question
Chapter 31, Problem 15WIO
Summary Introduction
To search:
The Internet for hypothesis about why humans and other animals yawn; then design an experiment to test one of the hypotheses.
Concept introduction:
Yawning is also a type of non-respiratory air movement. When one yawns, he/she takes in a deep breath of air.

O Large intestine O Bursa O Pleural cavity O Liver lobule O Synovial joint capsule Question 2 How many main bronchi does the right lung have? Why? O Two, because each lung has two distinct lobes O Ten, because each lobe is split into 10 distinct bronchopulmonary segments O Three, because the right lung has 3 distinct lobes O It will vary because everyone has uniquely formed lungs O One, because the trachea branches into one main bronchus for each lungarrow_forwardExperiments were performed in an anatomy and physiology laboratory. First, the rate and depth of respiration for a resting student were determined. In experiment A, students ran in place for 30 seconds, immediately sat down and relaxed, and then had their respiration rate and depth measured.Experiment B was conducted in the same manner as experiment A, except that the students held their breath while running in place. What differences in respiration would you expect for the two experiments? Explain the basis for your predictions.arrow_forward

For example Jon Krakauer’s book Into Thin Air is about a deadly climbing expedition to Mount Everest. What does it mean to say the air gets “thinner” as you climb upward? Explain the reason why the air gets “thinner” with increasing altitude. Briefly explain why it becomes difficult to breathe in “thin” air. Your answer should include something about the human physiology of breathing and why it is more difficult when the air is "thinner."arrow_forwardState a hypothesis that explains why all animals have chemoreceptors.arrow_forward
- Which statement is false? Chimpanzees have their vocal cords situated higher in the pharynx than in humans. All mammal species can choke (obstruction of windpipe) on food. The fact that we can choke on our food is an evolutionary compromise that is largely compensated that we have the capacity to speak. Choking is partly a consequence of the fact that there is a space between the posterior end of the soft palate and the dorsal tip of the epiglottis. A.. I.

The fish is then released unharmed. This action forces water to flow backwards over the gill filaments and in between the gill lamellae. What effect would this backwards water flow have on respiration? It would reduce efficiency of gas exchange between water and blood The only effect would be due to the fish's discomfort from this treatment. O It would improve efficiency of gas exchange between water and bloodarrow_forward
