Explanation:
The right atrium receives blood returning from others parts of the body through the superior vena cava and the inferior vena cava.
Explanation:
The pathway of circulation begins in the right atrium which receives the carbon dioxide-rich deoxygenated blood returning through the systemic circulation.
The deoxygenated blood from regions superior to the heart, i.e., the head, neck, shoulder areas are collected through the superior vena cava and that from the parts inferior or lower to the heart like visceral organs, extremities, trunk, hip etc are brought through the inferior vena cava.
Both these venous systems (superior and inferior) fill the right atrium.
The right atrium then pumps the deoxygenated blood to the right ventricle via the tricuspid valve.
The right atrium is filled with blood during diastole.
When animals undergo the process of cellular respiration, they release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. And when animals die and start to decay aided by organisms called decomposers, carbon dioxide is also emitted into the atmosphere. When humans burn fossil fuels, carbon dioxide yet again enters the atmosphere.

Answer:
B. decreases salivation and increases blood pressure
Explanation:
The sympathetic nervous system is part of the autonomous nervous system which controls involuntary responses of the body such as salivation and blood pressure.
The sympathetic nervous system is majorly responsible for body actions that are produced when threat is perceived. It generates responses referred to as the “fight or flight” response. Examples of such responses include, increased breathing, increased high blood pressure, dilation, decreased salivation, etc.
Activation of the sympathetic nervous system would result in rise in the blood pressure as can be witnessed by someone whose body has perceived a threat or reacting to a stressful situation.
The control of salivary production by the sympathetic nervous system leads to the release of noradrenaline which acts on certain receptors that results in decrease in the production of saliva. This is evident in a person that is facing a threat also.
