The sympathetic nervous system releases hormones known as catecholamines which increase the heart rate.

<h3>What is a heart rate? </h3>

it is the number of contractions of the heart per minute.

<h3>What are catecholamines?</h3>

These are the neurotransmitters that have a catechol and a side chain that is an amine.

<h3>Which catecholamines are released by the sympathetic nervous system?</h3>

Epinephrine and norepinephrine are the catecholamines that are released by the sympathetic nervous system to increase the heart rate.

<h3>Where are these hormones released?</h3>

These hormones are released in the blood.

<h3>How does this hormone increase the heart rate?</h3>

"These hormones are released at the neuromuscular junction of the cardiac nerves."
"They shorten the repolarization period."
This speeds up the rate of depolarization and contraction and thus the heart rate is increased.

Albinism is inherited as autosomal recessive trait. The frequency of the disease in the population equals to 1:20 000. Calculate

prisoha [69]

Answer:

0.0139- frequency of heterozygotes in the population

Explanation:

Let q to the power of 2 represents the frequency of the homozygous recessive (aa) = 1/20000 = 0.00005

This, q = √q^2 = √0.00005 = 0.007

Since p + q = 1

p = 1 - 0.007 = 0.993

Using the formula: p^2 + 2pq + q^2

Where 2pq represents the frequency of the heterozygotes, thing we have

2 x 0.007 x 0.993

= 0.0139

Which cell type divides fastest? (in order)

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

<u>Basal cells</u>

Basal cells divide faster than needed to replenish the cells being shed, and with each division both of the two newly formed cells will often retain the capacity to divide, leading to an increased number of dividing cells.
