Answer:

a. activation of the sympathetic autonomic nervous system by the new experience.

Explanation:

The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system generates a flight or fight response. This is a series of physiological processes that start when a person has any stress, new experience or emergency conditions such as the first diving trip. One such response produced by activated sympathetic division is increased heart rate to pump more blood and deliver more oxygen to body cells and tissues. Also, the person experiences an increased breathing rate to compensate for the increased oxygen demand.

vesna_86 [32]
The answer is letter A. 

Dogs grow a thick coat fur during winter because they are adapting to change. Adaptations are the result of evolution in different living organisms. This process occurs amazingly through gene mutation but it takes a very long period in time. Adaptation processes occur to help species survive and thrive in the ecological balance of life.

Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism that adapted through time. An example of this is the thick coat of fur that dogs naturally grow to protect themselves from the change of the weather.
