Answer:

c) prolonged events similar to the sympathetic nervous system, such as elevated heart rate and blood pressure, decreased digestive and urinary activities and increased metabolic rate.

Explanation:

The adrenal medulla secretes epinephrine and norepinephrine. A tumor on the adrenal medulla, called pheochromocytoma, causes excess amounts of these two hormones to be secreted. The effects of this type of tumor would lead to <u>prolonged events similar to the sympathetic nervous system, such as elevated heart rate and blood pressure, decreased digestive and urinary activities and increased metabolic rate</u>.

The medulla manages the fight-or-flight response through the release of epinephrine and norepinephrine. norepinephrine functions by increasing heart rates which causes the release of more glucose and increased supply of oxgenated blood to various parts of the body while epinephrine is concerned with the increased supply of sugar. This are sympathetic functions. An increase in the secretion of both will result in a prolonged  increased heart rate, blood pressure and metabolic rate in response to stress management.

9<br> Why doesn't sexual reproduction produce identical offspring?
Aloiza [94]

Answer/Explanation:

Sexual reproduction is a a combination of chromosomes from each mate. Since each mate has different pairs, when combined they produce a completely different product.

This product has half of the characteristics from both sides.

Below is an example of how this works. The bold cells are from one mate and the other is from the other.

X     --->    ><    <---   X

X     --->    ><    <---   X

X     --->    ><    <---   X

X     --->    ><    <---   X

X     --->    ><    <---   X

As shown, the cells broke in half and combined with the other half forming a cell of 50/50. With this process it never created an identical offspring but different ones each time since different parts of the cell combines in different ways but still remains half of one and half of the other.
