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). Parasympathetic system works usually after the meal and it is involved in the functions such as, secretory activities (salivation, lacrimation ), urination, digestion and defecation..
