The brain in children will have a much more synaptic connection than adults. This connection is important for learning process in the early stage of life. More synaptic connections allow multiple parts the brain areas to be connected even if there is a damage in one area. 
The synapse will be cut down later in a process called synaptic pruning. Only the area that frequently used will be preserved.

kvv77 [185]

The correct answer is option B, that is, the sympathetic system prepares the body for stress and activity and the parasympathetic system prepares the body for rest.  

Both the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous system are the components of the autonomic nervous system that works obligatorily. The sympathetic nervous system holds the key in controlling the body at the time of stress and injury, it is generally regarded as fight or flight. It contracts the muscles of the heart in order to enhance the rate of the heart.  

On the other hand, the parasympathetic nervous system is responsible to monitor the function of the body when it is at rest. It assists in sustaining the homeostasis in the body. It relaxes the muscles of the heart in order to reduce the rate of the heart.
