Answer: Because epinephrine activates the fight or flight response, related to the sympathethic response in the body.

Explanation:

The function of the Autonomic Nervous System is the regulation of the system cardiovascular, digestion, respiration, body temperature, metabolism, exocrine glands, and therefore keep the internal environment constant (homeostasis). While sympathetic activity increases in stress, the activity parasympathetic predominates during rest and satiety. The adrenal medulla originates from the neural crest and is composed of neuroendocrine specialized cells and are responsible for the production of catecholamines.

Catecholamines are dopamine, adrenaline, and noradrenaline (epinephrine and norepinephrine). Epinephrine prepares muscles, lungs, and heart for more intense activity, in situations of stress. It promotes the increase in the force of contraction in the muscles and increases in the heart rate. It also leads to increased blood pressure and bronchodilation, for greater availability of O2.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
Yes! "Diffusion is the process in which gas, through random movement of particles, tends to fill up the whole volume of the container in which it is placed. So a similar process would lead the smoke, which is in form of gas (or light particles), to fill in the whole room in which it is contained" -W.C.

Which of the following statistical measures is most helpful for indicating the extent to
Viktor [21]

Your question is lacking the necessary answer options, so I will be adding them here:

A. standard deviation.

B. mean.

C. median.

D. correlation coefficient.

E. range.

So, given your question, the statistical measure which is most helpful for indicating the extent to  which high school grades predict college grades is: D. correlation coefficient.

A statistical measure can be defined as a numerical measurement of each value of a quantitative variable in a given population. Some of the commonly used statistical measure in science include the following;

  • Mean.
  • Median.
  • Range.
  • Standard deviation.
  • Variance.
  • Mode.
  • Correlation coefficient.

Correlation coefficient can be defined as a statistical measure used for the measurement of the strength of the relationship between two (2) known variables and to represent their linear interdependence. Thus, the values of a correlation coefficient typically range from +1 (strong positive relationship) to -1 (strong negative relationship)

Hence, correlation coefficient is a statistical measure which is most helpful for indicating the extent to  which high school grades predict college grades because it would determine the strength of the relationship between them.
