Inside the larynx are prsent two paris of vocal cords. One pair is of false vocal cords which hs little to do wit sound production and the second inner pair is true vocal cords. When air is forced through the larynx, it causes vibration of the true vocal cords and sound is produced. The pitch of sound is determined by the tension on the vocal cords the greater the tension, the higher the pitch.

Assertion : Insects develop a complex system of air tubes called trachea for respiratory purpose. Reason : Exchange through body surface is not possible in insects.

Answer» Correct Answer - a
As the integument of insect is thick and impermeable ot minimize lose of body water , they can not carryout gas exchange though their body surface. To overcone this difficulty they have developed a complex system of air tubes called trachea to reach the air direclty near the tissue cells. Each trachea communicates with the exterior through openings in the body wall.

What is Tidal volume? Find out the Tidal volume (approximate value) for a healthy human in an hour.

Answer» Tidal volume is the volume of air inspired or expired during normal respiration. It is about 6000 to 8000 mL of air per minute.
The hourly tidal volume for a healthy human can be calculated as:
Tidal volume = 6000 to 8000 mL/minute
Tidal volume in an hour = 6000 to 8000 mL `xx` (60 min)
`=3.6xx10^(5)` mL to `4.8xx 10^(5)` mL`
Therefore, the hourly tidal volume for a healthy human is approximately 3.6 `xx 10^(5)` mL to `4.8xx10^(5)` mL
