Emotion is one of the responses of an organism (whole) which
involves physiological arousal. Other than indicating emotion, physiological
arousal or heightened physiological activity is modernly used in polygraphs.
Polygraphs or lie detector notes changes in blood pressure, pulse, respiration
while the subject is asked and answers questions. It is based on the assumption
that dishonest answers are indicated with physiological arousal.
Nucleus, it contains genetic material.
Answer: each allele is its own entity and always has an equal chance of being passed on to the next generation
Explanation:
I already learned this and i remember that is why my notes said and i also looked it up.
Answer:
The hormone oxytocin aids the birth process by stimulating: uterine wall contractions.
Explanation:
Oxytocin is a hormone that is released naturally in the body of women and that intervenes in certain physiological processes, activating behaviors at a mechanical level in specific organs such as the uterus and the breasts. In the case of the uterus, oxytocin stimulates and maintains the contraction of the smooth muscle of the uterus during labor and delivery, that is, it is responsible for the existence of contractions, which occur during intercourse, due to the distension of the uterus that occurs produced during labor.
Answer:
Both C and E are reasonable answers.
Explanation:
Homeostasis describes the body's ability to maintain a stable equilibirum. In other words, if the body experiences a stress, it will generate a response that works to counteract that stress and restore itself to how it was prior to the stress.
A. This describes a cause and effect (BP down --> venous return down). It does not describe an active physiological response to counteract the BP drop such as an increase in heart rate. Not homeostasis.
B. Again, a cause and effect is described. Blood vessel walls becoming thinner is not a response to counteract increased BP. Not homeostasis.
C. Here a response to a stress is described. Men are drinking more water. The body responds by getting rid of that water, restoring the body to its former state. This describes homeostasis.
D. This sounds like homeostasis, but it's actually the opposite of what happens. Dilation of peripheral blood vessels is a way for the body to get rid of heat. This is the opposite of what you would want if the body got colder - it would make the stress worse, which is the opposite of homeostasis. In actuality the response to cold temperature is constriction of blood vessels to preserve heat.
E. This deescribes homeostasis. The stress is increased glucose. The body's response to manage it is to release insulin, which helps remove the glucose from circulation.
