3 0

Answer:

The risks of various pollution and infections increase with urban sprawl.

Urban sprawl can be described as a condition in which the people from urban area migrate to low residential areas due to which the city starts to expand more in size.

During urban sprawl, more water contamination is likely to be caused as the water available cannot support such a large number of migration. There is not proper sewage system due to which contamination arise and cause sickness in the people. Also, these areas have more pollution due to traffic jam situations which causes sickness.

Sympathetic neurons stimulate vasoconstriction in the gi tract, while sympathetic neurons stimulate vasodilation in arterioles s
Anvisha [2.4K]

It is because of the different neurotransmitters and their receptors.

Sympathetic stimulation of arterioles in skeletal muscle is mediated by epinephrine acting on its β-adrenergic receptors.  

Sympathetic stimulation   of vasoconstriction occurs as a result of activation of α-1 adrenergic receptors by norepinephrine released by post-ganglionic sympathetic neurons.
