Please help fill in the blanks !!!
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

1. Chloroplast

2. cellular respiration

3. ATP

4. C6H1206(s) + 02(g) -- CO2(g) + 6H20(I) + energy

Explanation:

This question is describing the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Photosynthesis occurs in the CHLOROPLAST, which is responsible for the conversion of solar energy (from sun) into chemical energy (in glucose). The general photosynthetic reaction is:

6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) + energy → C6H12O6(s) + O2(g)

Contrarily, the process of cellular respiration occurs in the MITOCHONDRIA. Cellular respiration involves the breaking down of food molecules to synthesize ATP (energy) for use during biochemical reactions. The general chemical reaction is as follows:

C6H1206(s) + 02(g) → CO2(g) + 6H20(I) + energy

What do the parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions have in common? hints what do the parasympathetic and sympathetic division
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Most nerve fibers from both divisions innervate many of the same effectors.

Most nerve fibers from both divisions share the same sites of origin.

The parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for controlling the homeostasis, resting and digestion functions of the body. The sympathetic nervous system controls the body's response against threat and fight and flight responses. Both parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems are responsible for the involuntary functions of the human body.

Most nerve fibers from both divisions share the same sites of origin because both have the nerve fibers that are originated from brain or spinal cord that are directed or passes to the targeted organs.

Most nerve fibers from both divisions innervate many of the same effectors so as to induce functions according to the bodily needs.
