Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Malnutrition can lead to various abnormalities in the respiratory system, including reduced hypoxic drive (the body's response to low oxygen levels), reduced airway clearance (the ability to clear mucus and other substances from the airways), and loss of lung surfactant (a substance that reduces surface tension in the lungs and is crucial for proper lung function). These conditions can compromise respiratory health and increase susceptibility to respiratory infections and diseases.
