An accelerated heartbeat is to a slowed heartbeat as the nervous system is to the nervous system.

symphathetic, parasymphatetic

Explanation:

The accelerated heartbeat has a opposite action as compared to the slowed heartbeat likewise the symphathetic nervous system has a opposite action that of parasymphatetic system.

The symphathetic nervous system helps the body to perform intense physical activity like in case of fight or flight response. The parasympathetic nervous system relaxes the body and inhibits its functions that require energy.

scattering of light by tiny particles in air to produce the colors we see on sky, is dependent on the following factors:

(i) wavelength of light

(ii) size of the scattering particle  

(iii) distance traveled by light through the atmosphere.

according to rayleigh's law of scattering, the amount of scattering is inversely proportional to the fourth power of its wavelength. shorter the wavelength, greater is its scattering. hence violet/blue light is scattered more than red.

sun's light is a composite light ( visible light) with wavelengths in the range 400 nm (violet) to 700 nm (red). as sunlight passes through our atmosphere, the molecules of air scatter light according to their wavelengths. during sunrise and sunset, the sun's position is below the horizon. hence light from the sun travels a greater distance in the atmosphere when compared to its position a noon.

as sunlight enters the earth's atmosphere, blue light is scattered away and at the end of its journey in the sky, only red and orange wavelengths remain in the beam.

hence at sunrise and sunset, the sky appears reddish orange.
