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.

What are some challenges to eating healthy as a college student?
Darya [45]
College students are not usually the most financially stable and junk food tends to be cheaper than healthy food. Therefore, college students can only afford to eat unhealthy foods. College students can try to find healthy alternatives that are cheap and try saving their money. Always make sure that their is a fruit or at least something healthy in their meal. If your parents want you to decrease your fat intake, a good thing to keep in mind is that eating later at night actually causes you to gain weight more than eating during the day.
