Marie is experiencing the: Sympathomimetic effects (fight-or-flight state).

The sympathetic nervous system is a component of the autonomic nervous system, managing the activity of visceral organs and the automatic functions of the body, such as breathing or beating of the heart. The sympathetic nervous system is involved in many unconscious physiological activities through two neuromodulators of the catecholamine family: adrenaline, but especially norepinephrine (fight-or-flight hormones).
* It accelerates the metabolism and is activated for example in case of danger or fear, to prepare the individual to escape.
* It affects the cardiovascular system: it increases the heart rate and induces peripheral vasoconstriction, causing an increase in blood pressure.
* At the digestive level, it slows the muscular contractions of the intestines but promotes the release of glucose by the liver.
* It also has a bronchodilator effect, that is to say, it causes the increase of the diameter of the bronchi.

years of decay
quantity of energy
number of stable atoms
amount of material that has not decayed

Answer:

"Amount of material that has not decayed" being measured in the columns labelled "Fraction remaining” and "Percentage remaining”

Explanation:

The table shown below having explains about the half life , the amount of sample in both fraction and percentage. The first column named half life elapsed tells us the the number of half life that that is completed. Half life is the time taken for an element to reduce or decay into half of its initial amount.

The fraction remaining column gives the amount of sample that is left behind after the half life particular number of half life has completed. similarly the percentage remaining column gives the amount of sample in percentage. For example, the 5th row tells us that after 4 half life is over $\frac{1}{16} th$ of the sample remained. In percentage it is 6.25%

Which of the following is not a good polling technique? A. asking clear questions B. using a push poll C. using a large sample D

svetlana [45]

Question is which is NOT a good technique.
Answer is "B" and here's why:

A) Clear questions -- good. People understanding the question will answer accurately.
C) Large sample size -- good. Answers will be more accurate with more people asked (like if you flip a coin 1,000 times its going to be closer to 50% heads than if you only flipped it twice)
D) Random sample -- good. Avoids your own bias in choosing who to ask.

B) Push poll -- bad. Pretends to be unbiased, the pollster's real objective is to get a person thinking in a way that is to their advantage. Some political candidates do this just before elections.
