Breakdown of fat c.) Breakdown of glycogen d.) Breakdown of proteinarrow_forwardHello, May I get help on this question very soon please? I do not understand it. Question: When your body mounts a sympathetic response, it causes the smooth muscle in your bronchioles to relax and dilate (get wider). By contrast, a parasympathetic response causes the smooth muscles in your bronchioles to contract and constrict (get narrower). This seems strange because fight-or-flight responses seem like they should upregulate activity and cause more contractions. A benefit of bronchiole dilation during fight or flight responses is that it...(see image)arrow_forward
- Which sentence is accurate? Postganglionic and preganglionic fibers located in the sympathetic division are the same length. Postganglionic and preganglionic fibers in the parasympathetic are the same length. Postganglionic fibers are known to be shorter than preganglionic fibers in the sympathetic division. Postganglionic fibers are known to be shorter than preganglionic fibers in the parasympathetic division.arrow_forwardPearl is a 45 year old lady with a history of Bipolar Affective Disorder.

- A 67-year-old male patient arrives in the emergency department complaining of progressively worsening bouts of right leg weakness. His wife notes that he is confused and often has trouble forming words at these times, which typically last about a day. The right leg weakness improves only slightly from instance to instance, leaving him weaker each time. Because the symptoms are transient, he has put off seeing a physician until now. His wife is worried that he might be having a stroke. He reports having smoked a pack of cigarettes each day for 45 years. What surgical procedure will be scheduled? What tests might the ED physician order to arrive at a diagnosis? What are the possible diagnoses, and which is most likely?arrow_forwardA 67-year-old male patient arrives in the emergency department complaining of progressively worsening bouts of right leg weakness.
