Explain why an increased breathing rate accompanies exercise. what would happen to the individu
if this did not occur which system is mainly responsible for this?

Explanation:

When you exercise and your muscles work harder, your body uses more oxygen and produces more carbon dioxide. To cope with this extra demand, your breathing has to increase from about 15 times a minute (12 litres of air) when you are resting, up to about 40–60 times a minute (100 litres of air) during exercise. During exercise there is an increase in physical activity and muscle cells respire more than they do when the body is at rest. The heart rate increases during exercise. The rate and depth of breathing increases - this makes sure that more oxygen is absorbed into the blood, and more carbon dioxide is removed from it. When your body runs out of oxygen, or your other systems can't deliver oxygen to your muscles quickly enough, your muscles convert the available glucose into lactic acid instead.
