The correct answer is: decrease motility in the intestine, dilate bronchioles in lungs, dilate pupils, secrete epinephrine, and speed up heartbeat.

Being chased by a coyote constitutes a highly stressful and threatening situation for the rabbit. This means that the rabbit's physiology will adapt and the body will get prepared for action, that is to run and avoid the coyote.
This response is called an acute stress response (also called fight or flight response) and includes a hormonal cascade. The autonomic nervous system is responsible for the regulation of this response.

All of the changes in the sympathetic nervous system are an effort to boost the body with the necessary energy to run as fast as possible. Some of these adaptations include the dilation the lungs' bronchioles and the speeding up of the heartbeat, in order to accelerate the lung and heart action. Also, the motility of the intestine is decreased to a point where digestion nearly stops, in order for the blood flow to support the muscular action. Finally, one part of the adrenal glands triggers the secretion catecholamines, meaning the norepinephrine and epinephrine hormones.

TCTCG and AGAGC are the perfect pair.

Option A

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

DNA is the genetic molecule of a living cell. The DNA stores genetic information of the species inside itself by means of particular pattern or sequence of nitrogen bases called as gene. The gene is comprised of the particular sequence of nitrogenous bases which are four in number - adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine.

The nitrogen bases are present in both the strands of DNA and they have complementary relationship between them. The adenine forms hydrogen bonds with thymine and guanine pairs with cytosine.

Here the sequence of one strand is given as TCTCG. So according to the complementary pairing process, the opposite strand must have the sequence of AGAGC to maintain the structure.

Consider the following food chain: garden plants are eaten by snails, which are eaten by birds, which are eaten by the household
SIZIF [17.4K]
The garden plants and snails stay balanced as they are still being eaten. However, if the cat is removed, the birds will overpopulate and then the snail would be eaten and decrease faster which gives garden plants an increase in population due to the decrease in snails. Hope this helps!

What is the rule of proteins?
Roman55 [17]

The function of a protein is determined by its shape. The shape of a protein is determined by its primary structure (sequence of amino acids.) The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the gene (DNA) encoding it.
