- B. 10 to 20 times per minute
- C. 80 to 120 times per minute
- D. 30-40 times per minute
Explanation: When you exercise and your muscles work harder, your body uses more oxygen and produces more carbon dioxide.
Correct answer: 30-40 times per minute- A. Alveoli
- B. Diaphragm

- B. Bronchioles
- C. Pharynx
- D. Alveolar duct
Explanation: the main airways (bronchi) branch off into smaller and smaller passageways - the smallest, called bronchioles.
Correct answer: Bronchioles- A. Bronchioles
- B. Bronchi
- C. Alveoli
- D. Air sac
Explanation: The part of the respiratory system that has the thinnest wallwal and also the smallest diameter is bronchiole.

- B. Bronchioles
- C. Vocal cords
- D. Vocal duct
Explanation: The vocal folds, also known as vocal cords, are located within the larynx at the top of the trachea.
Correct answer: Vocal cords- A. No effect on surface tension
- B. Increasing surface tension
- C. Decreasing surface tension
- D. None of these
Explanation: Pulmonary surfactant is essential for life as it lines the alveoli to lower surface tension, thereby preventing atelectasis during…
Correct answer: Decreasing surface tension- A. Alveoli
- B. Trachea
- C. Diaphragm
- D. Bronchi
Explanation: Alveoli are tiny ball-shaped air sacs which inflate and deflate, and thus, make the lungs spongy.
Correct answer: Alveoli16115. In biennials and perennials, low temperature stimulus is not received by which of the following?
- A. Shoot apex of mature stem
- B. Embryo of the seed
- C. Leaves of the plants
