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.

Which of the examples below illustrates a homologous body structure?
AlladinOne [14]

The forearm of birds, reptiles, and humans illustrates a homologous body structure.

  • Similar physical characteristics found in species with a shared origin are known as homologous structures, although these characteristics have entirely different biological purposes.
  • The limbs of humans, cats, whales, and bats are examples of homologous structures.
  • All of these structures—arm, leg, flipper, and wing—are supported by the same type of bone structure.
  • The arms of a person and the wings of a bat are excellent examples of homologous structures. Because both bats and people are mammals, they have a common ancestor.
  • Even though they appear considerably different from one another from the outside, a bat's wing and a human arm have remarkably comparable internal bone structures.
  • Wings help bats fly, whereas arms enable human interaction with their environment. The wing and the arm also have various purposes.
