James was walking down the road when a large animal jumped out in front of him. james was startled and experienced a fast heart rate and heavy breathing. which statement best describes james’s condition in such a situation?

the adrenal gland secreted aldosterone, increasing sodium absorption, which increased the heart rate and breathing.

the adrenal gland secreted epinephrine, increasing blood pressure, which increased the heart rate and breathing.

the adrenal gland secreted androgens, stimulating calcium absorption, which increased the heart rate and breathing.

the adrenal gland secreted cortisol, increasing glucose absorption, which increased the heart rate and breathing.

The answer is most likely the second one. It makes the most sense.

Hope this helps!

some fungi obtain their nutrients from a living host (plant or animal) and are called most biotrophic fungi have fairly narrow host ranges—they are specialized on a limited called rhizomorphs that allow the fungus to grow from one tree to another. ascospores are formed inside a sac-like structure called an ascus. so your answer is a
