The sympathetic nervous system controls the response to a threat. We perspire, breathe more quickly and get goosebumps and feel nauseated. The correct answer is c. sympathetic nervous system.

The autonomic nervous system responds to information about the body and the environment by either stimulating or inhibiting bodily functions, typically through the sympathetic or parasympathetic nervous systems.There are two primary divisions of the autonomic nerve system-

  • Sympathetic
  • Parasympathetic

The sympathetic nervous system controls the "fight-or-flight" reaction, which is activated by danger or stress and can lead to a number of physiological changes. Most blood vessels, including many in the epidermis, digestive tract, and kidneys, constrict when the sympathetic nervous system is stimulated. This happens due to norepinephrine, released by post-ganglionic sympathetic neurons, activating alpha-1 adrenergic receptors. Sympathetic nervous system may impact these organs while under threat or stress:eyes, heart, lungs, digestive tract, liver, and genitalia.

For which of these people would a medical professional most likely recommend dietary supplements?
abruzzese [7]
A medical professional would recommend dietary supplements to Diane, as not being able to digest milk and other dairy products means her regular diet may be disrupted/changed.

Chris has no need for dietary supplements, as they will not help improve his focus or concentration.

Cassandra would not be recommended dietary supplements by a medical professional as they would not enable her to lose weight quickly, and it is also unhealthy to try and lose weight quickly, therefore it is in the medical professional's best interest to not recommend them to her.
