The correct answer is: A. stimulates secretory activity  

Parasympathetic nervous system is a part of the autonomic nervous system (a division of the peripheral nervous system (PNS), so it means it regulates unconscious actions in an organism. Parasympathetic system is known as a system for stimulation of "rest-and-digest", when the body is at rest (differ than sympathetic which is active for fight-or-flight response).

The reason for this is the fact that increasing the incline will cause her to work against gravity and the increase in intensity will result in her having to work harder. The difference between this and her running speed increasing is the fact that mentally she can determine what her running speed is, but if the machine is at an incline and the intensity is set higher, she physically has no choice but to push her body, thus resulting in a more effective workout.</span>

Why do real examples not always follow the punnrt square
m_a_m_a [10]
Because they have more underlying factors such as (straight) brown hair or (curly) blonde hair from different parents. A punnet square would be too big and confusing if we considered all the factors that came from the parents.
