Why will the ph balance of a body with a damaged lower respiratory system change?
a. the lungs may not remove as much carbon dioxide as before the damage.
b. the epithelial cells may not remove as many foreign particles as before the damage.
c. the lungs may not take in as much oxygen as before the damage.
d. the epithelial cells may not keep the inside of the lungs as lubricated as before the damage.

Option A

Explanation: The lungs in the body of the of the organism helps in maintaining the pH balance of the body.

The lungs and kidneys of the body helps in controlling the pH of the body. The normal pH of the body is maintained by the pH of the blood which is 7.4.

The disruption in the acid base balance of the body can place in the either direction. This disruption can be considered as medical condition known as acidosis and alkalosis.

This can be because damaged lungs might not be enough sufficient to remove carbon dioxide out of the body which changes the pH of the blood.

answer; more than 80% percent of adults;

since you have not provided the options here i   am going to give you general overview about hormone.hormone are actually the part of endocrine system in our body and produced by the endocrine glands. the hormones act like a chemical messenger   within human body. once produce by the glands they   travel through the blood stream and reach at specific or target tissue and organs   which result in control of our body function. the hormones are specific in their work and work on only the targeted tissue or organ   . with the of hormone endocrine system regulate the heart rate , metabolism, our mood and   growth as well as the development and even the sleeping cycle etc. they actually are the messenger for body cell and organs .
