Answer:

A. The sympathetic system prepares the body for stress and activity and the parasympathetic system prepares the body for rest.

Explanation:

The sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions are part of the autonomic nervous system and work antagonistically to each other.  

The sympathetic nervous system is the one that prepares the body for "fight or flight" under emergency or stress conditions. On the other hand, the parasympathetic nervous system is related to the resting phase of the body.  

The general effect of the sympathetic nervous system is to mobilize the energy while the parasympathetic nervous system serves to restore the energy level of the body.

If a molecule of co2 released into the blood in your left toe is exhaled from your nose, it must passed all the following except
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a, that is, pulmonary vein.

Explanation:

After getting discharged from the left toe, the molecule of carbon dioxide is exhaled through the nose, and in the process, it moves via the trachea, the alveoli, the right ventricle, and the right atrium. However, it does not passes through the pulmonary vein as the prime function of the pulmonary vein is to carry oxygenated blood obtained from the lungs and to pass it to the heart's left atrium.  

The pulmonary vein is different from other veins found within the body, which carries deoxygenated blood or blood filled with carbon dioxide from different parts of the body to the heart. Thus, it is clear that carbon dioxide does not pass through the pulmonary vein.
