This concept of sympathetic nervous system can be understand through an example like , imagine you are crossing a road and truck is coming towards you at a high speed or imagine you are facing down a grizzly bear at that time our bodies generates a physical stress response which prepares us to either take a stand(fight) or run away from the situation, and these responses are activated because of the sympathetic nervous system.
