Complex sleep apnea is the term used to describe a form of sleep disordered breathing in which repeated central apneas (>5/hour) persist or emerge when obstructive events are extinguished with positive airway pressure (PAP) and for which there is not a clear cause for the central apneas such as narcotics or systolic heart failure.
Giant covalent structures. Such as silicon dioxide, have extremely high melting points and low solubility in all solvents. They are non-volatile and conductivity depends on the availability of electrons in the valence shell (eg graphite). If all electrons are used in bonding they are insulators.ow melting points:- The bonds between molecules are very weak, especially when the molecules are small. It only requires a small quantity of heat energy to create enough molecular vibration to break the molecules attraction for one another and the solid melts.
Volatile fatty acids (VFA) are substances typically formed in the intestines when food is digested. Usually made up of a chain of carbon molecules, they can form as a result of oxidation and are sometimes found in landfills and groundwater. The molecular chains are also called short chain fatty acids.
