experiment‚ several physiological parameters were observed in three patients before‚ during‚ and after moderate exercise. One of these parameters was the pulmonary airflow‚ which was recorded utilizing an Airflow Transducer. This device measures airflow using slight pressure differences created by the resistance of a screen inside the device. Pulmonary airflow is the rate of movement into and out of the lungs‚ and is directly proportional to the pressure difference of the intrapulmonary pressure and

Activity 1 1. Size and concentration of the solute 2. It was too large to pass‚ as predicted 3. I predicted that the glucose would diffuse since it is small enough but the albumin is much too large to pass through the membrane. The experiment produced this result. Activity 2 1. Neither way requires ATP but facilitated diffusion requires carrier protein molecules for diffusion to occur. 2. By increasing the number of carriers more glucose can pass at a time increasing the rate‚
