Consider a basketball player whose heart is racing during the final moments of a game. with seconds on the clock, she makes a jump shot. her excitement is a function of her nervous system, and her movements are a function of her nervous system.

Her excitement is a function of her autonomic nervous system, and her movements are a function of her somatic nervous system

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system control the involuntary and reflexive functions of the body such as pumping blood, the beating of the heart, expansion or contraction of blood vessels or pupils — which is why we are seldom conscious of it.The autonomic nervous system is composed of parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) and the sympathetic nervous system (SNS).

The parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) controls homeostasis and the body at rest and is responsible for the body's "rest and digest" function. The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) controls the body's responses to a perceived threat and is responsible for the "fight or flight" response.

The somatic nervous system is the part of the peripheral nervous system that involves parts of the body a person can command at his will. It is responsible for carrying motor and sensory information both to and from the central nervous system (CNS). This system is made up of nerves that connect to the skin, sensory organs, and all skeletal muscles. The system is responsible for nearly all voluntary muscle movements as well as for processing sensory information that arrives via external stimuli including hearing, touch, and sight.

The excitement is involuntary which is a result of the increase in the players heart rate. This is controlled by the autonomic nervous system.

When the player saw the time element, she decided at his will to make a jump shot as a response to that stimuli. That is the function of the somatic nervous system.

gregor john mendel is known for study of inheritance in pea plants. he used garden pea plant for his study, having alternative traits for various characters. he performed cross-breeding in pea plants to check how characters are transmitted between parents to offspring, such as cross between pure tall and pure dwarf plant. mendel studied the inheritance patterns in pea plants for various generations.

thus, the correct answer includes options and f).
