Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

After a good meal, Jane is relaxing comfortably as her food digests, suggesting her <u>parasympathetic</u> nervous system is in control. When she is frightened by a loud noise, Jane's digestion is inhibited and her heartbeat accelerates, suggesting her<u> sympathetic </u>nervous system is in control.

Explanation:

Parasympathetic nervous system and the sympathetic nervous system are two of the 3 domains of the autonomic nervous system.

During the resting and the relaxing stage,<u> parasympathetic system</u> (also called as rest or digest system) is activated which is associated with the conservation of the energy by :

1) Slowing the heart rate

2) Increasing the intestinal activity ( the reason why  Jane is relaxing comfortably as her food digests )

3) Relaxation of the sphincter muscles of the GIT.

While during the fight , flight or fright stage , the <u>sympathetic nervous system</u> is activated which is associated with the body alertness by :

1) Increasing the heart rate

2) Inhibition of secretion of GIT enzymes ( the reason why digestion of JANE is inhibited )

3) Relaxation of the walls and the contraction of the sphincters of the GIT smooth muscle.

Explain what causes the skin to burn in the sun?Explain why people should avoid the sun if taking a photosensitive medication?
Flauer [41]

Exposure to types of radiation is associated with developing skin cancer. The sun can cause sunburn.

Melanin is the dark pigment in the outer layer of skin (epidermis) that gives your skin its normal color. When you're exposed to sunlight, your body protects itself by accelerating the production of melanin. The extra melanin creates the darker color of a tan.

A suntan is your body's way of blocking the sun rays to prevent sunburn and other skin damage. But the protection only goes so far. The amount of melanin you produce is determined genetically. Many people simply don't produce enough melanin to protect the skin well. Eventually, sunlight causes the skin to burn, bringing pain, redness and swelling.

You can get sunburn on cool, hazy or cloudy days. As much as 80 percent of sun rays pass through clouds. Snow, sand, water and other surfaces can reflect sun rays, burning your skin as severely as direct sunlight.

Medications that make your skin especially sensitive to the sun's radiation are known as photosensitizers. When you take them, sun exposure can cause overly reddened "sunburned" skin, hives, swelling, and itchy, scaly skin.

Not everyone will have the same degree of sun sensitivity from these medications. But for some, even short intervals of sun exposure can cause a rash or burn. Those who are more at risk include people with fair skin, light-colored hair, and blue eyes; people who work outside; people who live at higher elevations or near the equator; and people with certain autoimmune diseases, such as lupus.

Answer:

<em>c. the causation in fact, but not the proximate cause, of Ethel’s death.</em>

Explanation:

The law includes two forms of causation: <em>cause-in-fact, and cause-in-proximity (or legal). </em>

The "but for" check decides the cause-in-fact: However the outcome would not have happened without the action.

Both requirements should be met for such an action to be considered to cause harm; proximate cause is a legal restriction on cause-in-fact.
