The effect of sympathetic nervous system stimulation on the heart is to increase heart rate and myocardial contractility.

In the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), as the sympathetic stimulation increases, the heart rate also decreases along with the force of contraction.

The heart rate increases because of the release of hormones catecholamines - epinephrine and norepinephrine whereas the force of contraction increases because of a higher end-systolic volume [ESV] which requires a forceful heart contraction to pump more blood out of the ventricle which will decrease the ESV value.

The end-systolic volume [ESV] is the amount of blood that remains in a ventricle after a contraction (systole) which is to be maintained at around 50 mL of blood.

At different places one earth, depending on elevation, air pressure varies. What causes air pressure?
sleet_krkn [62]
Weight of air

Depending on elevation, the air pressure varies. This is because of the weight of the air that is exerting pressure on earth. At higher elevation, there is less layer of air that is exerting pressure so the atmospheric pressure is also less. At lower altitudes or at sea level, more layer of air is exerting pressure so the atmospheric pressure is also more. The sun’s energy has nothing to do with air pressure. The energy that the Earth gets from the sun is more or less constant. The same with density of nitrogen, and the earth’s magnetic field, they have nothing to do with air pressure.

How does the movement of particles of matter change when temperature increases?
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

The movement of particles of the matter increases with the increase in temperature.

The particles gain kinetic energy with increasing temperature and move in faster rate.

<u>For example:</u> When we blow a balloon with our mouth, we increases the temperature inside the balloon, the particles in the balloon gain kinetic energy that leads to the faster movement of gas particles in the balloon and they collide with each other and surface of balloon, after a peak the balloon get burst because of high kinetic energy and high collision.

Hence, the correct answer is "increases".
