Answer: C. Sympathetic nervous system

Explanation: The sympathetic nervous system is a part of the involuntary or autonomic nervous system, this is the system in the body that regulates the blood pressure, body temperature, pupil dilation, sweating and all the involuntary actions. It helps adjust the body fast enough to take action or react to stimuli without consciousness. When in the face of danger, let say for example, a snake coming towards you, a car coming towards you or hearing disturbing sounds in the dark. You next action or respond will be either to stand and fight or run away, The system responsible for that action (fight or flight) is the sympathetic nervous system.
