Read the following passage and answer the questions that follows.
The human respiratory system consists of a pair of lungs and a series of air passages which lead to lungs. The entire respiratory tract consists of nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and bronchioles. When air passes through the nose, it is warmed, moistened and filtered. Hair present in the nose filter out particles in the incoming air. The air is moistened by the mucus present in the nose and gets warmed by the blood that flows through the capillaries. Behind the nose, lies the pharynx with two passages, one for food and the other for air. The passage continues from pharynx to larynx and the opening that leads to larynx is called glottis, it is covered by epiglottis which prevents food from entering the passage to lungs. The total surface area through which gaseous exchange takes place can be about a hundred times that of the body.
Exchange part of the respiratory system comprises
  1. lungs and pleural membrane
  2. alveoli and their ducts
  3. bronchus and their protective covering
  4. diaphragm and alveoli

Please help. Experiment #1: Enzyme Concentration (Catalase) Preparation Note: Place some potato extract, water, and hydrogen peroxide in the refrigerator. You will use this in Experiment #4, but it needs to cool for at least half an hour. (Identify Control Variables) Add 1-2 tablespoons of potato extract, tablespoons of water, and 2 tablespoons of frozen hydrogen peroxide. Stir gently. (It is critical that you stir, never shake, for a full minute every time you do this experiment.) Measure the bubbles. Repeat this step. (You will be arranging the two results.) (Hypothesis) Repeat the reaction with twice as much potato extract (tablespoons) and just water (1 tablespoon). Does this reaction work well? (Hypothesis) Repeat the reaction with three times as much potato extract (1-2 tablespoons) and no water. Do this reaction twice. Average the results for each concentration of enzyme. Conclusion: What is the effect of adding more enzyme to your reaction? Experiment #2: Enzyme Denaturation by pH (Catalase) Instead of repeating the reaction with 2 tablespoons of potato extract yet again, you will now average the results from the 1-2 tablespoons reaction in Experiment #2 for the next 5 experiments. For reference, ammonia is basic and lemon juice is acidic. (Hypothesis) Add 1-2 tablespoons of potato extract, tablespoons of ammonia, and 1-2 tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide. Stir for a minute and measure the bubbles. Repeat this step. (You will be arranging the two results.) (Hypothesis) Make the same trial as in the previous step, but use an acid (lemon juice or white vinegar). Do this experiment twice. Average the results for basic and acidic reactions. Conclusion: What is the effect of changing the pH on your reaction?
