Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

After a good meal, Jane is relaxing comfortably as her food digests, suggesting her <u>parasympathetic</u> nervous system is in control. When she is frightened by a loud noise, Jane's digestion is inhibited and her heartbeat accelerates, suggesting her<u> sympathetic </u>nervous system is in control.

Explanation:

Parasympathetic nervous system and the sympathetic nervous system are two of the 3 domains of the autonomic nervous system.

During the resting and the relaxing stage,<u> parasympathetic system</u> (also called as rest or digest system) is activated which is associated with the conservation of the energy by :

1) Slowing the heart rate

2) Increasing the intestinal activity ( the reason why  Jane is relaxing comfortably as her food digests )

3) Relaxation of the sphincter muscles of the GIT.

While during the fight , flight or fright stage , the <u>sympathetic nervous system</u> is activated which is associated with the body alertness by :

1) Increasing the heart rate

2) Inhibition of secretion of GIT enzymes ( the reason why digestion of JANE is inhibited )

3) Relaxation of the walls and the contraction of the sphincters of the GIT smooth muscle.

According to its duration and etiology, a distinction is made between acute bronchitis, short duration, and chronic bronchitis, long duration and frequent relapses.

Symptom :

Cough with mucus, sometimes bloody. If the mucus of bronchitis is yellowish green and is accompanied by fever, it is most likely that there is bacterial infection.

Inflammation of the bronchi (ramifications of the airways between the trachea and the lungs).

Inflammation (edema) of the bronchial walls.

Obstruction of the alveoli.

Beeps or wheezing.

Bubbling (referred to the sound effect that can be seen when the patient is auscultated with a stethoscope).

Fatigue.

Fever, usually low.
