Answer: Clearly his SYMPATHETIC nervous system has been activated.

Explanation:

The effects of the sympathetic nervous system dominate in times of EMERGENCY or STRESS. And its effects include:

- dilation of pupils to help Gabe see sharply as he investigate

- inhibition of saliva secretion as his mouth turns dry

- acceleration of heartbeat due to fear

- stimulation of sweat glands to produce sweat.

All these show clearly that Gabe's SYMPATHETIC nervous system has been activated.

The transition from an afferent arteriole to an efferent arteriole occurs in the
timofeeve [1]

Answer: A. glomerulus.  

Explanation:

Each kidney has about 1 million nephrons, the urine-forming unit, and each nephron is made up of a glomerulus (capillaries walls) and renal tubules. The glomerular is constituted by the capillaries walls, which branch out and form a network, covered by the Bowman's capsule that retains the liquid, and begin to form a sequence of tubes.

The blood reaches the kidneys through the renal artery, which branches into the afferent arterioles that attach to the glomerular capillaries (where blood is filtrated), then form the efferent arteriole, which again becomes capillaries - the peritubular capillaries, which surrounds the renal tubules.

For example, proteins are macromolecules synthesized from amino acids. There are only 20 amino acids and a great number of proteins made of different combinations of those 20 amino acids.

AURORKA [14]
Lipids are generally defined as nonpolar compounds in the body that are possessing properties of being hydrophobic and amphiphilic. Lipids play an essential role in living organisms because they comprise the formation of cellular membranes, hormones, vitamins, and most especially energy storage.

There are a wide classification of lipids. Examples are fatty acids in monoglycerides, diglycerides and triglycerides. Other examples are cholesterol, vitamins, waxes, and other phospholipids. The general structure of common lipids in the body like triglycerides and phospholipids are shown in the pictures attached.
