inspiration, ihe diaphragm and external iniercostal muscle contract

simultaneously






bio-chemistry cell membrane regulation of respiration transport of respiratory gases buffer and its role

  1. If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion

  2. If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion

  3. If the assertion is true but the reason is false

  4. If both the assertion and reason are false

  5. If the assertion is false but reason is true

Show answer
Correct Option: E
Explanation:

(e) Inspiration is the result of muscular contraction. The diaphragm and external intercostal muscle contracts simultaneously. The lateral thoracic wall moves outward and upward.

Rate of breathing is controlled mainly by ________________.

bio-chemistry cell membrane regulation of respiration transport of respiratory gases buffer and its role

  1. $CO _{2}$ level in blood

  2. pH in blood

  3. $O _{2}$ level in blood

  4. $O _{2}$ level and pH in blood.

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Rate of breathing is mainly controlled by $CO _2$ level in the blood. Excess $CO _2$ decrease the pH of the blood and it mainly stimulate the respiratory centre of the brain (i.e., Medulla oblongata) and increase the inspiratory and expiratory signals to the respiratory muscles.

Rate of breathing is controlled mainly by

bio-chemistry cell membrane regulation of respiration transport of respiratory gases buffer and its role

  1. $CO _2$ level in blood

  2. pH in blood

  3. $O _2$ level in blood

  4. $O _2$ level and pH in blood

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The rate of breathing is controlled mainly by CO$ _2$ level in blood. The partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO$ _2$) controls the respiratory rate. The respiratory centre measures the levels of carbon dioxide, oxygen and acidosis in the arterial blood and sends message accordingly. If the carbon dioxide levels in the blood increases, the rate and depth of breathing increases.

Thus, the correct answer is 'CO$ _2$ level in blood.'

Which of the following is not a stimulus for breathing?

bio-chemistry cell membrane regulation of respiration transport of respiratory gases buffer and its role

  1. Rising $CO _2$ levels

  2. Rising blood pressure

  3. Arterial $pO _2$ below $60$mm of Hg

  4. Change in pH of arterial blood

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

An increased concentration of carbon dioxide is the strongest stimulus to breathe more deeply and more frequently. When the carbon dioxide concentration in the blood is low, the brain decreases the frequency and depth of breath.

So the correct answer is 'Rising CO2 levels'.
