This is the passive type of process.
As the diaphragm relaxes, the pleural cavity contracts, which exerts pressure on the lungs. As a consequence, the volume of the lungs reduces and the air is passively pushed out of the lungs. Exhalation is passive, thanks to the elastic properties of the lungs.
Answer:
A. Proteins, Carbohydrates, or fats
Explanation:
There are essential nutrients for life in which we can include carbohydrates, fats, proteins, minerals, vitamins, fiber, and water. The main nutrients we use for energy are carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. This is because they contain calories in them and the calories are what our body needs to create energy.
Our bodies, like a car, need fuel to function. The fuel we need comes from food. The food has energy stored in it so whenever we eat food, that stored energy is transferred to us. This food act as fuel for the cells in our body so they can carry all the metabolic processes and give us the energy to move, run, think, talk, digest and all of the biological processes we need to survive.
The parasympathetic nervous system responds when the body is relaxed and at rest while sympathetic nervous system is responsible for response to emergency situation.
Explanation:
- The sympathetic nervous system is called fight or flight division while the parasympathetic nervous system is the rest and digest division.
- The pre-ganglionic neurons of sympathetic nervous system arises from lumbar and thoracic regions of spinal chord while the preganglionic neurons of parasympathetic nervous system arises from the brain and sacral region of the spinal cord.
- The sympathetic nervous system decreases the activity of digestive system while the parasympathetic nervous system increases the activity of digestive system.
- Sympathetic nervous system dilates bronchioles while parasympathetic nervous system constricts bronchioles.
- Sympathetic nervous system increases blood pressure while parasympathetic nervous system usually do not effect blood pressure.
- Sympathetic nervous system increases heart rate while parasympathetic nervous system decreases heart rate.
