Answer 1

Answer:

Sympathetic; Parasympathetic

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system is divided into two parts: the sympathetic and the parasympathetic, which differ anatomically and physiologically. The sympathetic autonomic nervous system has the function of preparing the human body to deal with situations of stress or danger. To do so, it stimulates the rise in blood pressure, releases adrenaline into the body and speeds up the heartbeat. For this reason, we can say that the anxiety attack Julie began to feel was caused by the sympathetic nervous system.

The parasympathetic autonomic nervous system, in turn, acts to restore the normal functioning of the body after it has experienced stress, nerves or adrenaline release. That is, heart rate, blood pressure and adrenaline levels return to normal. For this reason, we can say that Julio's feeling of relaxation when his son called her was caused by the parasympathetic nervous system.

Answer 2

it would be the central nervous system
