The hypotheses regarding the presence of platyrrhines in south america that are supported by available evidence are:

Platyrrhines evolved from an anthropoid in Africa that migrated south (mainly) on land to Antarctica and then to Patagonia, at the southern tip of South America.  

Platyrrhines evolved from an African anthropoid and migrated across the Atlantic to South America.

This hypothesis is supported by the striking similarities among Old World and New World higher primates. During the Eocene, when the weather was much warmer and dryer, migration would have been possible. This hypothesis is supported by evidence.

Beginning in the late Eocene, there were early anthropoids in Africa that predated platyrrhines but looked strikingly similar to the first platyrrhines in South America. This resemblance suggests that platyrrhines evolved in Africa before arriving in South America.

The question seems incomplete. The complete question is:

The following are alternative hypotheses regarding the presence of platyrrhines in South America. Which of these is/are supported by available evidence?

Platyrrhines evolved from an African anthropoid and migrated across the Atlantic to South America.

Platyrrhines evolved from an anthropoid in Africa that migrated south (mainly) on land to Antarctica and then to Patagonia, at the southern tip of South America.

Platyrrhines evolved from a North American anthropoid, then migrated to South America in the late Oligocene.

Old World and New World anthropoids evolved independently from different lineages in Africa and South America, respectively.

Archy [21]

Answer:

Both epinephrine and norepinephrine are released by the adrenal medulla and they circulate a neurotransmitters and hormones throughout the nervous system and circulatory system. Kara's  adrenal medulla is releasing ephinephrine and norepinephrine to prepare her for fight or flight.

Explanation:

Epinephrine and norepinephrine are neurotransmitters and they belong to a class of compounds called catecholamines.  While chemically both these neurotransmitters are very similar, they have different functions. Norepinephrine has an effect only on alpha receptors in your arteries, while epinephrine works of both alpha and beta receptors. Beta receptors are in the heart, lungs, and the arteries of the muscles in our skeletal system as well.  Both compounds also serve as hormones in the body and having either an overabundance or a deficiency of these compounds can affect your health.  Epinephrine can increase your heart rate and smooth out or relax the muscles of your breathing passages so you breathe better when experiencing a fight or flight response. Norepinephrine can constrict your blood vessels and increase blood pressure getting your body ready for action. It is also used to treat very low blood pressure.

valentina_108 [34]

Answer: b. ​Combine physical contact with verbal praise

Explanation:

This is the best option of the options listed. Combining physical contact with verbal praise can have the effect of augmenting the verbal praise and giving it more power so to speak. For example, saying congratulations and then shaking a person's hand can really increase the weight of the congratulatory remark.

Using this method instead of the other options will help avoid confusion in the child as well as reduce the chance of the praise becoming meaningless as it was said one too many times.
