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.

What is the primary product of light independent reactions
SOVA2 [1]

The primary products of the light independent reactions  (after one turn of the cycle) are:

a)  two G3P molecules

b)  three ADP

c) two NADP+

However ADP and NADP+ are not really "products". They are regenerated and later used again in the Light-dependent reactions.  Each G3P molecule is composed of three carbons.

For the Calvin cycle (Light independent cycle) to continue, 5 out of  the 6 carbons provided by the two G3P molecules are used to regenerate ribulose 1, 5 phosphate. Therefore there  remains only one carbon for the next turn of the cycle.

One  molecule of glucose requires 6 turns of the cycle. Any extra G3P is used to make starch, sucrose and cellulose.

The ___________ propel debris-laden mucus away from lower respiratory system structures.
Aliun [14]

The cilia propel debris-laden mucus away from lower respiratory system structures.

<h3>What is function of mucous membrane?</h3>
  • Another general defense against possible infections is provided by the mucous membranes that line the digestive, urinary, and respiratory tracts, as well as the nose, mouth, and lungs.
  • In order to cover and protect the more delicate cell layers underneath it and to trap waste and particle matter, including microorganisms, mucous membranes are made up of a layer of epithelial cells connected by tight junctions.
  • Because they feature ciliated appendages, which resemble hairs, the epithelial cells lining the upper portions of the respiratory tract are known as ciliated epithelial cells.
  • Mucus that contains debris is forced out and away from the lungs by the cilia's movement. The mucus is then coughed up, sneezed out, or swallowed and destroyed in the stomach. The mucociliary escalator is another name for this route of elimination.
