Answer:

Option (2).

Explanation:

Epinephrine is also known as adrenaline. This hormone is released by the adrenal gland in the fight and flight conditions. The sympathetic nervous system of the brain maintains the fight and flight conditions of the body.

James body is in fight and flight condition when he saw that large animals jump in front of him. This condition causes the release of epinephrine hormone. The release of epinephrine in blood increases the blood pressure of the body. The heart rate and breathing also increases in this condition.

Thus, the correct answer is option (2).

Which trophic level contains more energy: a trophic level of herbivores or a trophic level of carnivores? Why?
Bas_tet [7]
Hello :)

The answer to your question is a trophic level of carnivores


Only a fraction of the energy available at one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level.

Since carnivores are above herbivores in the trophic levels, herbivores have more energy than carnivores.

Hope this helps and have a great day!

Can a frontal lobe tumor make someone psychotic
mafiozo [28]
To put it simply... Yes. The Frontal lobe controls that basic emotions and thought process, that make you, You. A tumor would definitely interfere with those processes, and you can end up with patients with some form of AMS (altered mental status). They could end up with a biological psychosis, hallucinations, depression and anxiety, Anasecoria (uneven papillary dilation, due to pressure on the optic nerve), Delirium, or Dementia.
