ANSWER KEY
11. Hiccup is an inspiratory spasm caused by sudden contracmm of Hg and in arterial blood is 46 mm of Hg. Hence, CO2 from the arterial blood diffuses into the alveolar air. Thus, the urge to inhale in humans results from rising PC02. tion of diaphragm accompanied by loud closure of glottis. 20. Na+ is antagonistic to carbonic acid.
