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.

IrinaVladis [17]

I would decide to take the test to find out if you will develop Huntington's chorea, because it is a disease that has a lethal progeny, with early treatment it is possible to live longer.

<h3>What is this Huntington's disease?</h3>

Huntington's disease is a genetic disease that affects the nervous system, causing involuntary movements, changes in behavior and motor coordination. Symptoms begin to appear in adulthood, between 35 and 45 years of age, and may worsen over time.

With this information, we can conclude that Huntington's Disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant disease, which confers a 50% risk of transmission to offspring. Although there is no cure, it is possible to prevent the transmission of this disease to future generations through PGT-M.
