I believe it is the Hypothalamus. It activates the sympathetic nervous system and the adrenal-cortical systems. Fight or flight response is a specific biochemical reaction that both humans and animals experience during intense stress or fear. It is the body's response towards perceived threat or danger. During the reaction, certain hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol are released, thus speeding the heart rate, slowing digestion, and changing various other autonomic nervous functions, and therefore giving the body a burst of energy and strength.

Microscope talk:
levacccp [35]

Answer:

The correct answer would be large NA

The resolution of a microscope is defined as its ability to distinguish two closely placed points as different entities.

The NA or numerical aperture of an objective is defined as the ability of a microscope to gather light.

NA determines the resolving power of the microscope that is, the higher the NA the higher will be the resolving power of the microscope.

However, the total resolution of any microscope also depends upon the NA of the substage condenser.
