Answer:

The correct answer is e. the passage of electrons from one energy-generating carrier to another

Explanation:

The electron transport chain is a series of proteins and organic molecules found in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Electrons pass from one member of the transport chain to the next in a series of redox reactions. The energy released in these reactions is captured as a proton gradient, which in turn is used to form ATP in a process called chemosmosis.

These transport molecules, in the inner mitochondrial membrane, are reduced and oxidized, accepting electrons and transferring them to the next molecule, electrons descending from high energy levels to lower ones, that is, from one energy-generating carrier to another. When lowering to other levels, energy is released that will be used in the synthesis of ATP by oxidative phosphorylation.

B) sympathetic nervous system

Explanation:

The sympathetic nervous system controls the way the body quick involuntary response to harmful or stressful situations. A rush in hormones rapidly occur to quicken the body's alertness and heart rate to release extra blood to the muscles

It's route of Expression starts with the amygdala sending a distress signal to the hypothalamus which sends activation signals to the sympathetic nervous system via the autonomic nerves to the adrenal glands which help pump the hormone epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) into the bloodstream.
