Answer:
The correct answer is option c. the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.
Explanation:
The parasympathetic nervous system is the one that controls involuntary functions and acts. It also causes or maintains a body state of rest or relaxation after an effort or to perform important functions such as digestion.
The sympathetic nervous system is the one that controls visceral reactions and reflexes, that is, it controls how our body responds to a threatening situation, as is the case in the example.
Both systems make up the autonomic nervous system which is in charge of controlling the involuntary functions of our body.
The most prominent roles of mitochondria<span> are to produce the energy currency of the cell, ATP (i.e., phosphorylation of ADP), through respiration, and to regulate cellular metabolism. The central set of reactions involved in ATP production are collectively known as the citric acid cycle, or the Krebs cycle</span>
Most organisms are Diploid, and as a result, they will have received 2 copies of the chromosomes, or sets of chromosomes, from both their parents. This they will have 2 sets of Genes that will perform almost exact same process, except with different phenotypes.
These chromosomes need to be homologous, in order for new alleles and other genetic combinations to be made.
