Select each correct answer. more than one answer may be correct.
the components of the human body, from organ systems to cell organelles, interact to maintain a balanced internal environment. to successfully accomplish this task, organisms possess many different receptors that detect deviations in the body's internal state and initiate corrective actions.

in which of the following ways does the body respond to an increase in skeletal muscle cell activity?

a. by converting white bloods cells to red blood cells
b. by increasing the heart rate
c. by increasing the respiratory rate
d. by producing less hemoglobin

b. by increasing the heart rate

c. by increasing the respiratory rate

Explanation:

Increased activity of skeletal muscles would require an increased supply of oxygen to these cells to sustain the muscle contraction. Muscle cells perform aerobic cellular respiration in the presence of oxygen and produce ATP molecules to be used during muscle contraction. Therefore, there is an increase in heart rate to pump sufficient blood to the skeletal muscles which in turn ensures enough supply of oxygen. Also, there will be an increase in the respiration rate to inhale the required oxygen.

carbohydrates: (starches and sugars) composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

lipids: (fats, oils, and waxes) are made of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

nucleic acids: contain hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus. they are polymers of nucleotides. a nucleotide has three parts, a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate     (-po⬇️4) group, and a nitrogenous base.

proteins: made up of nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. they are polymers of amino acids.

prophase: we can observe the chromosomes to coil up and condense. they become visible. nuclear membrane and envelope disintigrate.s

metaphase: chromosomes align at the center, the metaphase plate. spindle fibers attach to centromeres of the sister chromatids. they meet at kinetochores.

anaphase: sister chromatids are pulled towards each opposing centromere, set on different poles.

telophase: chromosomes are now clustered up only on either sides of the cell. nuclear membranes reform, and a new cell wall forms along the cell plate. this will lead to cytokinesis, the process that divides the cell membrane and forms the cell wall.
