The answers are sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system, respectively. 

The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) controls the response of our body to threats or stressors. It prepares the body for an intense physical activity by increasing the body's biological processes like heart rate, breathing and the like. This is also known as the "Flight-or-fight" response. 

The parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) on the other hand, responds the opposite way. When threats or stressors are no longer present, the PNS works to relax and calm the body. This is done to help the body recover from the high activity it previously went through.

klio [65]

The correct answers are evolution, genetic mutation and selection.

The early ancestors of horses showed the pressence of digits and now the modern horses have hooves in their limbs. There could be many reasons for the pressence of hooves horses.

These could be due to the genetic mutations, which could have changed the shape of the digits in the limb. Sudden change in DNA can cause mutation and this mutation can change the phenotype of the horse.

There are chances that evolution took place over a period of time that changed the character in the horse.

Natural selection can also be one of the reason for the change in the phenotype of the digits on the limb of the horses.

A biologist marked 200 mice, by putting leg bands on them, out of a forest containing an unknown number of mice. The marked mice
Fofino [41]

Answer: The estimated population is 1250 mice

Explanation: The method use was marked and recapture, in which individuals are marked in the first capture and after some time biologist trap a new group of individuals that can be or not marked

Whit this data is possible to estimate the size of a population applying the Peterson method but is important to make some considerations such as:

1. All indivuals have the same probability to be capture

2, The population remain constant in terms of birth and death rate.

Taking this into account, the formula that allows to determine the size of the population is:

N=CM / R  

where N is the size of the population, C is number of indivuals trapped in recapture, M is number of individuals marked in the first capture and R is the number of marked animals trapped in recapture

In this case:

N = 250 * 200 / 40 = 1250
