When sodium bicarbonate is added to the water, the bicarbonate ion acts as a carbon source for photosynthesis causing the leaf disks to sink. As photosynthesis proceeds, oxygen is released into the interior of the leaf, which changes its buoyancy causing the disk to rise.

The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system prepares the body for stressful situations that require energy expendit
k0ka [10]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The sympathetic autonomic nervous system activates the body for hormonal or neuronal responses also known as fight- or - flight response, For example during an fire emergency and there is a need to run. The response occurs primarily by  via impulses transmitted through the sympathetic nervous system, and also secondarily  through catecholamines secreted from the adrenal medulla.

Although the sympathetic autonomic nervous system is activated in stressful conditions, it needs to be constantly active even at a basal level to maintain homeostasis.
