Breathing involves differences in what, measured in torr, between the inside of the lungs and the air outside?
- Correct Answer: resistance
- temperature
- gravity
- pressure
Explanation: Breathing involves pressure differences between the inside of the lungs and the air outside. The pressure differences are only a few torr. A normal breath is about 0.50 L. If room temperature is about 22°C, then the air has a temperature of about 295 K. With normal pressure being 1.0 atm, how many moles of air do we take in for every breath?
