General Body Response Counterbalance; restores body to state of calm. Body speeds up, tenses up, becomes more alert. Functions not critical to survival shut down.

Cardiovascular System (heart rate) Decreases heart rate Increases contraction, heart rate

Pulmonary System (lungs) Bronchial tubes constrict Bronchial tubes dilate

Musculoskeletal System Muscles relax Muscles contract

Pupils Constrict Dilate

Gastrointestinal System Increases stomach movement and secretions Decreases stomach movement and secretions

Salivary Glands Saliva production increases Saliva production decreases

Adrenal Gland No involvement Releases adrenaline

Glycogen to Glucose Conversion No involvement Increases; converts glycogen to glucose for muscle energy

Urinary Response Increase in urinary output Decrease in urinary output

Neurotransmitters neurons are cholinergic: acetylcholine neurons are mostly adrenergic: epinephrine / norepinephrine (acetylcholine)

Arturiano [62]

The right option is; D) mitosis

In multicellular organisms, life begins as a single cell until mitosis occurs, causing growth.

Mitosis is a process of cell division, and a part of the cell cycle in which a single cell divides, and produces two identical daughter cells (new nuclei) that contains the same shares of the parent’s cell part. Mitosis occurs in multi cellular organisms, and its primary purpose is for growth, and to replace worn out cells. Mitosis contains four basic stages which are; prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
