c

Explanation:

The flask with phenolphthalein and NaOH changes color when the carbon dioxide gas formed during respiration was passed through the solution. The gas dissolves in the solution and forms carbonic.

The dissolution of CO2 into an aqueous solution of NaOH is a two steps reaction.

1. CO2 first reacts with water to form carbonic acid

This makes the phenolphthalein to change color.

2. The product in step 1 reacts with NaOH to form NaHCO3 and water

Hence, the correct option is c.

he movement of air through earth's or any planet's atmosphere is called wind, and the main cause of earth's winds is uneven heating by the sun. this uneven heating causes changes of atmospheric pressure, and winds blow from regions with high pressure to those with low pressure.

i hope this : )
