Answer:

a. The embryo would suffocate or dehydrate.

Explanation:

Chorion is one of the four extraembryonic membranes that cover the embryo inside the egg. Chorion develops into the part of placenta-derived from the fetus.

Trophoblast develops into chorion during pre-embryonic development. Once formed, the chorion develops villi that are required for the exchange of material, specifically the respiratory gases, between the mother and fetus.

If an egg had nonfunctional chorion, the developing embryo will not get the supply of gases. In the absence of gas exchange between mother and embryo, the embryo will die of suffocation.

Chorion is also involved in the development of the placenta which in turn is the organ of the exchange of nutrients and gases and removal of toxic material.

Nonfunctional chorion would not support the placenta formation and the embryo will not get the supply of nutrients and water.

Answer:

C. the sympathetic division of the autonomic system.

Explanation:

The sympathetic nervous system is one of the divisions of the autonomic nervous system that controls involuntary body functions in the body. The sympathetic nervous system is said to stimulate the fight-or-flight response of the body when the body senses threat, or is exposed to a stressor. These fight-or-flight responses are generated in the body in form of physiological changes in order to put the body at top alert to focus on dealing with the stressor.

Physiological changes that are stimulated by the sympathetic nervous system as fight-or-flight responses include dilated pupils, inhibited digestive activity, increased respiratory rate, and release of glucose from the liver, which are all stated in the question. It is the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system that controls all these activities.
