The respiratory system is more than just a conduit for oxygen.
| It is a dynamic system where gaseous exchange powers cellular functions. Lungs, with their vast alveolar surface area, facilitate the transfer of oxygen into the bloodstream and the removal of carbon dioxide. The rhythmic act of breathing, regulated by the brainstem, ensures a constant supply of fresh air, while the protective mechanisms, like cilia and mucus, guard against pathogens and pollutants. The intricate balance of this system is evident in conditions like asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, where airflow is compromised. | English | eng | original-annotations | dbc5c037b2ecc422f10c97f2be156debb4eafe9f62b6dd7d6d7c7f1f7c43f28b |

Maurissa Bickford, 39, was able to pull her son Noah out of the pond in Sidney, Ohio.
He had gotten away from his mother and ran toward the ice.
But after she put him atop the ice, she could not lift herself out.
They were found unresponsive by two county highway employees and died at the hospital from their injuries. | A mother and her three-year-old son died after she tried to rescue him from an Ohio pond. Maurissa Bickford, 39, was able to pull her son Noah out of the water and atop the ice, but was then unable to lift herself out of the water. They were found unresponsive on Thursday by two county highway garage employees who were working nearby the pond, which was almost completely frozen over. Maurissa Bickford, 39, and her son Noah, 3, died after she tried to rescue him from a Sidney, Ohio, pond. She was able to pull her son out of the water and atop the ice, but was then unable to lift herself out of the water. The 10-foot-deep pond is on the residential property of the family's next-door neighbor, John Moeller, who said the neighborhood had agreed that kids were allowed in the pond as long as they were supervised by an adult. Zachery Rogers and Samuel Deatherage pulled Noah to a bank and administered CPR. Maurissa was pulled out of the water by fire department workers, according to WHIO. They were both sent to nearby hospitals, where they later died of their injuries. It is unclear how long either of them had been in the water. Shelby County Sheriff John Lenhart said Noah had gotten away from his mother and ran onto the ice. 'She did what all moms and dads do: tried to rescue the child,' he said. The 10-foot-deep pond is on the residential property of the family's next-door neighbor, John Moeller, who returned to his home just moments after the workers discovered Maurissa and Noah. The neighborhood had agreed that the pond could be used for recreation and fishing and that kids were allowed in the pond as long as they were supervised by an adult, according to Moeller. But Moeller told WHIO he had never seen Noah by the water before and that the tragedy had him'shook up'. 'Realize that life can be very, very brief,' he said. Moeller said the community was banding together to help Maurissa's husband and daughter.

In the context of geography, how does climate change affect land use, biodiversity, and social sustainability? | Climate change causes land use to change, which damages biodiversity. As a result, ecosystems can become unbalanced, changing the use of the territory and damaging the sustainability of society.
Climate change is also causing a range of increasing impacts on the environment. Deserts are expanding, while heat waves and wildfires are becoming more common. Amplified warming in the Arctic has contributed to melting permafrost, glacial retreat, and sea ice loss. Higher temperatures are also causing more intense storms, droughts, and other weather extremes. Rapid environmental change in mountains, coral reefs, and the Arctic is forcing many species to relocate or become extinct. Even if efforts to minimise future warming are successful, some effects will continue for centuries. These include ocean heating, ocean acidification, and sea level rise. | English | eng | re-annotations | 561bff8c7fa965892dc1797918c2052df12a142b4a6906249b3be5bac8a811ca |

She even went ahead to tell me when Angela will die, that her child doesn't belong to Nelson, Nelson is not the father," Neme explained.
"Malaria... I'll go get you drugs," Sam told her.
"Sam, this is real, nothing like malaria here..."
Sam stood up, carried his baby, and went downstairs, while Neme dressed up to go out. She met her mum in the parlor watching TV. She sat down with her and told her the encounter she had with Dora. Her mum burst out with laughter.
"Your husband should take you back to the hospital, biko," Mrs. Cynthia told her.
"Mum, I'm serious. I don't like this. Sam said this earlier today. If you guys don't believe, that's fine," Neme said, going outside.
Neme entered her car and drove off with anger written all over her. She drove to Nelson's house, where she saw Angela and her friend Julia discussing. She greeted them and requested to see Nelson and his kids. When Angela asked Julia who was standing in front of her minutes ago, Neme turned immediately she heard her. That was when she realized all Dora told her was nothing but the truth.
"She's blind, isn't she?" Neme asked.
Julia nodded, rubbing her palm.
"Whose child is that?" Neme asked again.
"Angela's daughter," Julia replied, as her heart raced faster.
"Who is the father?"
Julia didn't respond; she stood up and went to the backyard.
Neme sat beside Angela, staring at her with disgust. "You killed Dora," she said. Angela didn't reply. "Are you ready to confess?" Angela didn't answer. She picked up her walking stick to leave, but Neme pushed her down.
"Is not fair," Julia said, rushing to carry her up.
"What's not fair? After killing my friend, her kids are now motherless. You think Dora is happy wherever she is. You even tied Nelson down. Well, you will soon join her," Neme said, as tears fell from her eyes.
Julia didn't say anything. She carried her friend up to her room. Neme followed them. She entered the room and covered her nose immediately. She opened the wardrobe and closed it. Julia kept staring at her while Angela lay on her messed-up bed, staring at nothing.
Neme searched everywhere but couldn't find what she was looking for. She bent down to check under the bed, still with her nose covered. She saw a small calabash which contained Nelson and Dora's passports tied with red threads and so many other fetish things. "This is it. Come and see for yourself, young woman," Neme told Julia.
Julia was shocked when she saw their three passports inside the calabash. She turned, looked at Angela, and then at Neme.
"I have been searching for these passports for a very long time now," she told Neme.
"Which passports, where did you find them?" Angela asked, sitting on the bed.
"You are evil, Angela. Angela, why are you this wicked?" Julia asked.
"Where did you find the passport? Don't touch that calabash, please. Don't go close to it."
Neme's phone rang; her husband was calling her. "Where are you?" He asked.
"I'm coming," she replied.
"My son is hungry; your mum has gone to the market, and I've tried my best to make him stop crying. Please start coming back," he said and ended the call.
Neme dragged Angela to the parlor where Nelson, his mother-in-law, and kids were watching TV. Nelson stood up at the sight of the calabash. Neme smashed it in front of him and asked Angela to confess.
"Confess what? Where is that calabash coming from?" Nelson asked.
Angela started crying, begging them to have mercy on her. "It's the handiwork of the devil, ooo. Please forgive me, forgive me, please. I don't want to die," she begged.
"Akuko (Story), you are going to die in two days' time," Neme told her, knocking her on the head.
"I killed Dora..."
"You did what? You killed my daughter. Are you crazy? How dare you? You made my grandchildren motherless. God! Dora's mother screamed, jumping and punching her (Angela).
"Julia, where are you? Please help me..." she cried.
"Help a witch like you? What did you do to me?" Julia fired.
"I killed Dora, oooo. I tied Nelson to myself so that he doesn't leave me for another woman. That was the reason why I killed Dora. I made you look like trash to other women. Please forgive me... Julia... I also made you... look... like trash to other men. I... never wanted... you to... get... married, and... this... child... I... mean my daughter... her biological father is not Nelson... Please, when I die, take her to her father..." Angela confessed.
Neme became weak; she sat on the couch and wept like a baby. She missed her best friend. Dora's mother was at the other corner, crying her eyes out; she wished her daughter would just come back to life. Nelson's mouth was widely opened; he didn't know what to say. Whenever he tried to say something, words wouldn't come out.
"Julia, take your friend out of my house," he commanded.
Julia was scared of touching her; she picked up Angela's daughter and dragged both outside the gate, leaving them at risk.
"Julia, are you leaving me?" Angela asked.
"One more word from you, I'll strangle you here," Julia told her and left.
Neme consoled Nelson and his mother-in-law before leaving to attend to her child.
Immediately she got home, she saw Dora at the gatekeeper's position, smiling at her, giving her a sign of a job well done, and then vanished. Goosebumps took over her body as she shivered inside. She explained everything to her mum and husband; they believed and congratulated her.
In the next two days, Angela was found dead along the roadside with her daughter lying helpless beside her. Julia was passing that morning when she saw her and picked up her daughter, took her home, washed her up, fed her, and took her to her father's place. Her father was delighted to see his blood. He asked about Angela and was told she died earlier that day along the roadside. "She has always been evil," was the guy's last comment. Julia promised to always visit them and left.
Four years later, Dora's mum took her grandchildren to the cemetery to drop flowers for their mum and to tell her how life has been without her.
"We love you, Mum," they chorused.
"Rest well, Dora," her mum said, waving.
Nelson promised himself never to remarry. He took care of his two wonderful kids.
