Answer 1

If your body is in need of more oxygen, you should **increase (breathe faster) and breathe more shallowly**. This response allows for a quicker intake of oxygen, although deeper breathing may be more effective for maximizing oxygen uptake. However, in this context, the focus is on the need for more oxygen, which typically leads to an increased respiration rate.
