The correct answer is sympathetic nervous system.

In the given case, the harry is experiencing stress, which provokes the flight and fight syndrome. The sympathetic nervous system causes the release of  adrenaline and noradrenaline causing change in physiological responses. During the flight and fight response, a hyperarousal occurs, which leads to the change in physiological responses. It causes the increased heart beat, increased blood pressure, anxiety, increase in pulse, increased sweating etc.

Answer:

Plato Answer

Explanation:

Embryonic stem cells are plentiful, and they can create every cell in the human body. Researchers can use these cells to create tissues. They can possibly grow new organs in a lab to treat diseased organs. Adult stem cells are rarer in the human body, and they’re limited in the types of cells they can make.

An embryo can’t grow without its stem cells, so people have ethical concerns about their use. Adults can provide consent to donate their stem cells, so there are fewer ethical issues regarding the use of adult stem cells.
