Answer:

Explanation:

Integration is the process of combining information from many sources. The nervous system combines information from the different senses (vision, hearing touch, etc), and each part of the brain combines information from many other parts of the brain. This process is essential for the body and its parts to function smoothly and effectively. It is also essential for the ability of the brain to extract and organize information about the world.

The nervous system can do this, because neurons (nerve cells) have a part (called dendrites), which are designed to combine or integrate information. They get connections, called ( synapses) from many other neurons and combine the signals from them.

Answer: 1. Blood enters the heart through two large veins, the inferior and superior vena cava, emptying oxygen-poor blood from the body into the right atrium of the heart. As the atrium contracts, blood flows from your right atrium into your right ventricle through the open tricuspid valve.

2. Plasma is the main component of blood and consists mostly of water, with proteins, ions, nutrients, and wastes mixed in. Red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen and carbon dioxide. Platelets are responsible for blood clotting. White blood cells are part of the immune system and function in immune response.

3.Within the bone marrow, all blood cells originate from a single type of unspecialized cell called a stem cell. When a stem cell divides, it first becomes an immature red blood cell, white blood cell, or platelet-producing cell.

4. Epinephrine and norepinephrine, hormones secreted by the adrenal medulla, raise blood pressure by increasing heart rate and the contractility of the heart muscles and by causing vasoconstriction of arteries and veins. These hormones are secreted as part of the fight‐or‐flight response.
