Accepted Answer

Hello everyone here We have a question that says an increased concentration of blank is the strongest stimulus to breathe more deeply and more frequently. The increased concentration of C carbon dioxide is the strongest stimulus to breathe more deeply and more frequently, oxygen is the stimulus for breathing only in hypoxic conditions. So it isn't a nitrogen is an inert gas and it's not a stimulant for breathing. So it's not be and blood glucose stimulates pancreatic insulin or glucose gone relief. So it isn't the, so our answer is C carbon dioxide. Thank you for watching. Bye.
