Breathing rate is lowered during eating because OPTION 2: Swallowing and breathing cannot go together.

  • A small, movable cartilaginous flap or lid-like structured organ is situated above the larynx is called an epiglottis.
  • It prevents the food and beverages from entering the windpipe (trachea) while swallowing food hence preventing choking that might obstruct the breathing process.
  • Moreover, metabolism being up-to-the-mark also results in the lowering of breathing rate during eating.
