Explanation:

Compounds are those substances that are made up of elements that are combined in a fixed proportion or ratio. The individual property of element is lost once it forms a compound. The physical and chemical properties of both compound and an element is different.

Example of a compound is water and its elements are hydrogen and oxygen. Water is a colorless liquid that acts as a solvent and dissolves most of the solutes in it. While oxygen and hydrogen occurs as gases in their elemental state.

Medulla also help in adjusting respiration when there is need and also generates normal breathing movements by stimulating the nerve that supplies the diaphragm. This pons are located under the medulla and it controls speed of involuntary respiration( respiration

Not under conscious control).

Ahat [919]

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.
