Best Answer

In greenhouse gas accounting for livestock, Robert Goodland and Jeff Anhang propose counting either carbon in respiration or foregone carbon absorption attributable to livestock. That's because reality no longer reflects the old model of the carbon cycle, which proposes that photosynthesis perfectly offsets respiration. That model assumed roughly constant levels of respiration and photosynthesis on Earth. But respiration has increased exponentially with livestock - while these animals have caused a dramatic decline in the Earth's photosynthetic capacity, along with large and accelerating increases in soil carbon volatilization. See their full argument at the web-site in the related link.

You count your respirations by watching the rise and fall of your chest for a minute. One rise and fall is considered one respiration.

Respiration with and without oxygen is called?

Respiration with oxygen is called aerobic respiration, and respiration without oxygen is called anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration produces more energy than anaerobic respiration.


The Difference of aerobic respiration and unaerobic respiration?

Aerobic Respiration: Respiration that requires oxygen Anaerobic Respiration: respiration that does not use oxygen aerobic respiration is continuous. anaerobic respiration has no new subsrates from photosynthesis to continue. it is usually shorter and not as efficient.


When counting a patients respiration's how should the patient be breathing?

The patient should be breathing normally and unaware that their respiration is being counted. It's important not to disrupt their natural breathing pattern to get an accurate count. Count the breaths for one minute for a full assessment.
