Cellular organelles are the internal organs of a cell. They are responsible for keeping the cell alive. They do this by bringing in food for the cell, getting rid of waste, protecting and repairing the cell, and helping it grow/reproduce.
Answer:d) contracting her pupils and increasing secretion of stress hormones.
Explanation:
Peripheral nervous system consists of 3 major neuronal levels: vegetative (reticular formation and brain stem), limbic system and neocortical level. The RAS is the link between the brain and the spinal cord.
Brain stem consists of pons, medulla oblongata and mesencephalon. Brain stem is responsible for involuntary functions such as heart beat, respiration and vasomotor activity. Limbic system represents the emotional control center. It consists of thalamus, hypothalamus and pituitary gland and maintains homeostasis. Neocortical part processes sensory information and regulates emotional responses.
Autonomic nervous system (ANS) regulates visceral activities and organs (circulation, digestion, respiration and temperature). ANS has two divisions: sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system.Parasympathetic nervous system regulates homeostasis via the release of acetylcholine (Ach). Parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for energy conservation and relaxation.
There are three stages in the stress response: immediate effects of stress, intermediate effects of stress and prolonged effects of stress.
Answer:
1. Part A: No
2. Part B: Yes
3: Part C : Yes
4: Part D : No
Explanation:
1) Part A: Facilitated diffusion of glucose into a muscle cell:
No; sodium ion co - transport is required for active transport of glucose but not for facilitated diffusion of glucose
2) Part B: Active transport of dietary phenylalanine across the intestinal mucosa:
Yes; co - transport of sodium ions drives the inward movement of amino acids and can only occur if sodium ions are actively pumped back out again.
3) Part C: Uptake of potassium ions by red blood cells:
Yes; uptake of potassium ions can occur only via a pump that couples the inward pumping of potassium ions to the outward pumping of sodium ions.
4) Part D: Active uptake of lactose by the bacteria in your intestine
No; active uptake of sugars and amino acids in bacteria is driven by a proton gradient.
