The Correct  answer is C.

The Island of Hispaniola is the second largest island in the Caribbean, at 29, 237sq miles. Haiti occupies about 1/3 of the Island while the Dominican Republic controls the balance of the land.

Christopher Columbus claimed Hispaniola in 1492, declaring it  "the most beautiful island in the world".  It later became the launching base for the Spanish conquest of the Caribbean, as well as the American mainland. 

The western third of the island became known as Haiti in 1804 and while the remainder became known as the Dominican Republic in 1844.

Answer:

DNA can be described as the molecules which carries the genetic code for every individual. The DNA is made up of nucleotide bases which join the two strands of DNA. The sugar and phosphate form the backbone of the DNA.

Genes are the hereditary molecules which are made up of DNA. The alleles of a gene represent which traits will be carried by an organism.

Chromosomes are made up of genes. During reproduction, crossing over of DNA occurs and alleles of the genes assort independently due to which variations occur.

Which branch of the autonomic nervous system (ans) mobilizes the body during extreme situations, such as rage or fear?
Shalnov [3]
There are two branches of the autonomic nervous system, namely the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous systems. Both of which regulates bodily functions involuntarily but in different manners. The parasympathetic system is the system primarily activated in "relaxed" states or "rest and digest" states. These include digestion, urination, slowing of heart rate, slowing of respiratory rate, etc. The sympathetic nervous system on the other hand is primarily activated by "flight or flight" response such as rage or fear. These include inhibition of digestion, increase in heart rate and respiratory rate, sweating, etc.
