Answer:

The sympathetic nervous system.

Explanation:

The sympathetic nervous system prepares the body to respond quickly to external stimulation or to situations that require alertness or strength, such as situations that arouse fear, anger, excitement or shame (situations of "fight or flight"). In this type of situation, the sympathetic nervous system stimulates the heart muscles to increase the heart rate and thus increases the rate with which oxygen and nutrients are sent to the blood, dilating the bronchi of the lungs (increases oxygen retention ) and causes the dilation of blood vessels that supply the heart and skeletal muscles (increasing the blood supply). The sympathetic system innervates the sweat glands and when the body is under situations of anxiety or stress stimulates them causing perspire to occur.

Why does this happen? oil is lighter than water and the molecules of the oil are attracted to the other oil molecules, not water, the water molecules the same

What kinds of animals would be most affected by an oil spill at the beginning? animals that live their lives near the surface of the ocean. Why? because now the water that was clear and free-flowing is now dark and sticky. oil also changes the way how some animals survive so make their ways less effective. one example are birds like pelicans

Use a spoon to stir the oil for 30 seconds.


Answer the following questions:
What natural action stirs the real ocean? ocean currents caused by wind and the earth's roation

Even if you can’t see it, is all the oil still in your ocean? yes
Which animals in the ocean become affected after wave and current action causes some of the oil to settle to the bottom, or be absorbed into the water?  bottom-feeders
