35 mm Hg. The blood pH increases while PaCO2 decreases but the bicarbonate (HCO3−) undergoes no changes (Apple & Downs, 2008). Respiratory alkalosis is primarily caused by hyperventilation due to conditions that stimulate the respiratory center such as oxygen deficiency at high altitudes, pulmonary diseases, congestive heart failure, and acute anxiety. Respiratory acidosis occurs when there is carbonic acid excess that raises the blood levels of CO2 above 45 mmHg. The blood pH decreases

of energy, the first law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, this is the conservation law.

Energy is need to circulate blood, lymph and tissue fluid throughout the body; it is used for breathing and taking in oxygen; needed for making new cells for carrying out growth and repair; it is needed to transmit nerve impulses so that we can respond to changes in the environment

Summary of the Anatomy of the Frog As in other higher vertebrates, the frog body may be divided into a head, a short neck, and a trunk. The flat head contains the brain, mouth, eyes, ears, and nose. A short, almost rigid neck permits only limited head movement. The stubby trunk forms walls for a single body cavity, the coelom (Anatomy of the Frog). All the frog's internal organs--including the heart, the lungs, and all organs of digestion--are held in this single hollow space (Anatomy of the
