Answer:

Mitochondria is the organelle where cellular respiration takes place. Cellular respiration can be described as a process in which oxygen and glucose are converted into carbon dioxide and water along with the release of ATP. This reaction can be written as:

Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon dioxide + Water + ATP molecules

C6H12O6 + 6O2→ 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP

The ATP made can be broken down so that energy is released.

ATP + H2O → ADP + Pi + free energy

The sympathetic chain contains a group of cell bodies called the sympathetic chain Blank 1. Fill in the blank, read surrounding

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The sympathetic chain contains a group of cell bodies called the sympathetic chain GANGLIA. This structure contains a second cell body for the sympathetic nervous system, the first in the series being found in the THORACOLUMBAR REGIONS' lateral horn of spinal segments T1-L2. The purpose of the VENTRAL AND DORSAL rami is to carry visceral motor and visceral sensory neurons to and from this sympathetic chain.

Explanation:

The sympathetic trunks (sympathetic chain, gangliated cord) are a paired bundle of nerve fibers that run from the base of the skull to the coccyx.
