Which of the following is NOT a reaction of the
parasympathetic nervous system?
A. Decreased respiration
B. Decreased heart rate
C. Increased blood flow to digestive tract
D. Decreased saliva production

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Explanation:

D, or decreased saliva production is not a reaction of the parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS) since the PSNS actually increases/causes salivation which helps you digest your food.

As a tip, I usually associate the PSNS with a state of rest/restful conditions, as opposed to the sympathetic nervous system which is the opposite and is associated with stress and high-pressure conditions (like fight or flight).

Hope this helps!! :)

In cats, white spots are caused by a dominant allele called T, while (tt) individuals are solid colored. Also short hair(H) is dominant to long hair(h). What would the probability be of getting a white-spotted, long-haired cat from this cross: TTHh x Tthh? What are the phenotypes of the parents?

Answers

Answer:

1. Probability is 1/2

2. Parents phenotypes:

TTHh = white spots, short hair

Tthh = white spots, long hair

Explanation:

This question involves two different genes coding for spot color and hair length in cats respectively. In the first gene, the allele for white spots (T) are dominant over the allele for solid color (t) while the allele for short hair (H) is dominant to long hair (h).

According to this question, a cross between parent cats was performed as follows: TTHh x Tthh. The following gametes will be produced by each parent:

TTHh - TH, Th, TH, Th

Tthh - Th, Th, th, th

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), 16 possible offsprings will be produced. However, according to the question, 1/2 of the offsprings will probably be white-spotted and long-haired. The phenotypes of the parents are as follows:

TTHh = white spots, short hair

Tthh = white spots, long hair

15. Describe how the structure of the bird respiratory system provides the energy the
bird needs for flight.

Answers

Answer:

The bird's respiratory system consists of paired lungs, which contain static structures with surfaces for gas exchange, and connected air sacs, which expand and contract causing air to move through the static lungs.

Birds do not have a diaphragm; instead, air is moved in and out of the respiratory system through pressure changes in the air sacs. ... Bird lungs do not expand or contract like the lungs of mammals. In mammalian lungs, the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occurs in microscopic sacs in the lungs, called 'alveoli.'

Air sacs are found as tiny sacs off the larger breathing tubes (tracheae) of insects, as extensions of the lungs in birds, and as end organs in the lungs of certain other vertebrates. They serve to increase respiratory efficiency by providing a large surface area for gas exchange.

How do birds respire?

Some birds can sing while they fly! ... When the bird takes a second breath, the air in the lungs is sucked into the cranial air sacs -caudal thoracic, cervical, and clavicular. The cranial air sacs act as a holding chamber which provides a small back flow of air into the lungs during expirations.

Predict: Why aren't all organisms made of just one cell?
Why do cells divide, instead of simply growing larger?

Answers

Multicellular organisms use different types of cells to function not just one cell. If cells grew larger that cell would be more demanding.

The living beings that are comprised of more than one sort of cell are known as Multicellular Organisms.

Why organisms are made up of cells?

These organelles are liable for an assortment of cell capacities, for example, acquiring supplements, creating energy, and making proteins. Unicellular living beings are comprised of just a single cell that completes each of the capacities required by the organic entity, while multicellular creatures utilize various cells to work.

Cells divide because:

Cells need to separate for your body to develop and for body tissue, for example, skin to restore itself ceaselessly.
