Usage Examples English
- Rainbow acoustic monitoring provides noninvasive and continuous measurement of respiration rate using an adhesive sensor with an integrated acoustic transducer that is applied to the patient's neck.
- A third paradigm is: tachypnea is abnormally rapid and shallow respiration (though some may argue this is inaccurate as breathing differs from respiration), hyperventilation is increased rate or depth of respiration to abnormal levels causing decreased levels of blood carbon dioxide and hyperpnea is any increase in breathing rate or depth that is not normal.
- All cellular respiration releases energy, water and CO2 from organic compounds.
- Some fraction of this fixed energy is used by primary producers for cellular respiration and maintenance of existing tissues (i.e., "growth respiration" and "maintenance respiration").
- Fermentation, like aerobic respiration, begins by breaking glucose into two pyruvate molecules.
- Some anaerobic bacteria use chloroform for their respiration, termed organohalide respiration, converting it to dichloromethane.
- Dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA), also known as nitrate/nitrite ammonification, is the result of anaerobic respiration by chemoorganoheterotrophic microbes using nitrate (NO3−) as an electron acceptor for respiration.
- In some species cutaneous respiration accounts for 5 to 40 percent of the total respiration, depending on temperature.
- Labored respiration or labored breathing is an abnormal respiration characterized by evidence of increased effort to breathe, including the use of accessory muscles of respiration, stridor, grunting, or nasal flaring.
- Abnormal breathing patterns include Kussmaul breathing, Biot's respiration and Cheyne–Stokes respiration.
- Pneuma also played an important role in respiration. Respiration is the process by which breathing helps to cool and moderate the inner vital heat ("thermotēta psychikēs") held in the heart.
