Solutions

Expert Solution

Answer: Increase

Explanation: The phosphate of the blood helps in the process of glycolysis as the end product of glycolysis the adenosine triphosphate requires phosphate molecules for its formation.

But, when a person hypoventilates, that is his/ her rate of breathing decreases, the amount of Carbon dioxide increases in the blood. This increase in the amount of carbon dioxide lowers the PH of the blood from the normal level which in turn affects the glycolysis process of the body. Decrease in PH of blood decreases the rate of glycolysis and hence no phosphate of the blood is used increasing the amount of phosphate in the blood.

In its reverse, when the rate of breathing is more (hyperventilation), the amount of carbon dioxide in the blood decreases increasing the amount of blood PH than the normal level. This causes increase in the rate of glycolysis and the blood phosphate level decreases. This condition is known as hypophosphatemia.

The hypoventilation is its reverse causing increase in the blood phosphate level called as hyperphosphatemia. It is also caused due to kidney failure.

Definition: Marginal is additional or incremental (amount of increase) or decremental (amount of decrease). Should I do (choose) activity x? MC(x) = the additional costs of doing x MB(x) = the additional benefits of doing x Rule: If Expected MB(x) > Expected MC(x), do x; otherwise don't. Application: Would an employer ever hire anyone if the expected additional cost of his or her employment were greater than the expected marginal/additional benefit? Of course not, to do so would be irrational....
