Virty [35]

Answer:

1. Sympathetic; parasympathetic

Explanation:

When the person is under stress and scared, the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system is activated. This activated nervous system triggers the release of stress hormones from the adrenal gland and generates flight or fight response. During this response, the heartbeat and breathing rate of the person is increased, pupils become dilated and the blood supply to skeletal muscles is increased.  

Once the person is out of danger and reached home, the parasympathetic nervous system is activated. It inhibits the physiological responses generated by the sympathetic division and slows down the breathing and heart rate. The activated parasympathetic division triggers digestion and absorption of nutrients to restore the energy levels of the cells.

In sickle-cell disease, a glutamate -> valine substitution results in the formation of Hb5 (sickle cell hemoglobin) molecules
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

b. aggregate abnormally to form fibers and cannot adequately carry oxygen

Explanation:

The sickle cell hemoglobin is an abnormal form of hemoglobin. As the sickle cell hemoglobin release oxygen to the interstitial fluid, it forms long, stiff, and rod-like fibers. These aggregates of hemoglobin tend to bend the erythrocyte into a sickle shape. The sickled erythrocytes rupture easily and do not move easily through blood vessels. Sickled cells tend to stick together and form clumps which in turn cause blockages in blood vessels. Therefore, the presence of sickle cell hemoglobin adversely affects the ability of RBCs to carry oxygen.
