Answer:

True

Explanation:

The sympathetic autonomic nervous system activates the body for hormonal or neuronal responses also known as fight- or - flight response, For example during an fire emergency and there is a need to run. The response occurs primarily by  via impulses transmitted through the sympathetic nervous system, and also secondarily  through catecholamines secreted from the adrenal medulla.

Although the sympathetic autonomic nervous system is activated in stressful conditions, it needs to be constantly active even at a basal level to maintain homeostasis.

WILL MARK BRIALIEST How do the planets Venus and Neptune differ in terms of atmospheric composition?
azamat
<span>The atmosphere of Venus is mostly carbon dioxide, 96.5% by volume. Most of the remaining 3.5% is nitrogen. Early evidence pointed to the sulfuric acid content in theatmosphere, but we now know that that is a rather minor constituent of theatmosphere. 

T</span>he atmosphere of Neptune consists mainly of hydrogen and helium, but about 2.5-3% of the atmosphere is methane. Like Uranus, clouds in Neptune's atmosphere<span> are composed of crystals of methane.</span>

The cell is taking in substances through membrane proteins, without any energy expenditure of its own. The substances naturally
Hitman42 [59]

The right answer is facilitated diffusion.

Facilitated diffusion is a diffusion mechanism facilitated by membrane transporters. it's the spontaneous passage of molecules or ions (like the passive diffusion) through a biological membrane through transport molecules (unlike passive diffusion). This process does not consume energy (like the passive diffusion) and therefore does not involve active transportation.

Which of the following statements is the most likely explanation for plant withering due to leaky membranes in cold temperatures
podryga [215]

Answer:

C. H+ ions do not accumulate inside the thylakoid, so ATP synthase makes too little ATP.

Explanation:

Plant withering refers to the virtual death of plant cells due to lack of food. During the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, ATP needed for the synthesis of sugar (food) is created in the thylakoid membrane of the CHLOROPLAST of plant cells.

In the light-dependent reaction, hydrogen ions (H+) builds up/accumulate in the thylakoid lumen to create an electrochemical or proton gradient i.e. a difference in the concentration of H+ ions across the membrane. The hydrogen ions passes through a protein complex called ATP synthase, which forms ATP from ADP (by adding phosphate group), from the energy generated by the electrochemical gradient formed as a result of hydrogen in (H+) build up.

Hence, a plant that possess leaky membrane due to the cold temperature will likely wither because H+ ions are not able to accumulate inside the thylakoid causing a proton gradient, so ATP synthase makes too little ATP.
