Answer:

b. adrenal medulla

Explanation:

The gland responsible for the "fight or flight" response is the adrenal medulla. The nervous system sends out an impulse to smooth muscles and glands that tell the adrenal medulla to release adrenaline and noradrenaline into the bloodstream. Once they are released into the bloodstream and  circulating through the body, it brings changes such as your breathing getting quicker and quicker and your heart pounding more and more.

4. The mass of ball A is 10 kilograms and the mass of ball B is 5 kilograms. If
Nookie1986 [14]
4.) We are told that ball A is travelling from right to left, which we will refer to as a positive direction, making the initial velocity of ball A, +3 m/s. If ball B is travelling in the opposite direction to A, it will be travelling at -3 m/s. The final velocity of A is +2 m/s. Using the elastic collision equation, which uses the conservation of linear momentum, we can solve for the final velocity of B.

MaVai + MbVbi = MaVaf + MbVbf

Ma = 10 kg and Mb = 5 kg are the masses of balls A and B.
Vai = +3 m/s and Vbi = -3 m/s are the initial velocities.
Vaf = +2 m/s and Vbf = ? are the final velocities.

(10)(3) + (5)(-3) = (10)(2) + 5Vbf
30 - 15 = 20 + 5Vbf
15 = 20 + 5Vbf
-5 = 5 Vbf
Vbf = -1 m/s

The final velocity of ball B is -1 m/s.

5.) We are now told that Ma = Mb, but Vai = 2Vbi

We can use another formula to look at this mathematically.

Vaf = [(Ma - Mb)/(Ma + Mb)]Vai + [(2Mb/(Ma + Mb)]Vbi

Since Ma = Mb we can simplify this formula.

Vaf = [(0)/2Ma]Vai + [2Ma/2Ma]Vbi
Vaf = Vbi

Vbf = [(2Ma/(Ma + Mb)]Vai + [(Ma - Mb)/(Ma + Mb)]Vbi
Vbf = [2Mb/2Mb]Vai + [(0)/2Mb]Vbi
Vbf = Vai

Vaf = Vbi
Vbf = 2Vbi

If the initial velocity of A is twice the initial velocity of B, then the final velocity of A will be equal to the initial velocity of B.

If the initial velocity of A is twice the initial velocity of B, then the final velocity of B will be twice the initial velocity of B.

Alex17521 [72]
Cells can repair themselves in a molecular level through its DNA and the process involve, either the old damage cells are renewed and resynthesized by new ones as cell divides and undergoes such division.

<span><span>Organelles are tiny parts of a cell, in analogy are like organs. They perform various tasks vital for a cell to survive. They deliver information, send nutrients and excrete waste and protect cells from antibodies and other microorganisms that could and possible harm the cell itself.<span> </span></span>
Cells repair themselves through the process of cell division and mitotic process. <span>Mitosis occurs more in your body since it changes, modifies and requires cell division at maximum rate in many useful situations with the stand to a particular system and organ. Mitosis and meiosis are simply cell division processes that occurs differently, they're characteristically divergent from each other according to their function and structure.<span>
