All except which of the following would occur when the sympathetic division is activated? all except which of the following would occur when the sympathetic division is activated? reduced digestive and urinary functions decreased metabolic rate heightened mental alertness elevated heart rate and blood pressure

The correct answer is "Decreased metabolic rate".

Explanation:

The sympathetic division is the part of the autonomic nervous system that deals with the coined "fight or flight" response when facing with a stressful situation. Is not true that when the sympathetic division is activated the metabolic rate decreases, actually, the effect is the opposite. The sympathetic division influences key processes such as glucose and lipid metabolism as well as daily energy expenditure, particularly, it influences the resting metabolic rate (RMR).

humans, along with other animals and plants, have linear chromosomes that are arranged in pairs within the nucleus of the cell. the only human cells that do not contain pairs of chromosomes are reproductive cells, or gametes, which carry just one copy of each chromosome.

what statement best describes the difference between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems?

the sympathetic nervous system prepares the body for intense physical activity and is often referred to as the fight-or-flight response. the parasympathetic nervous system has almost the exact opposite effect and relaxes the body and inhibits or slows many high energy functions.
