Answer: The correct answer is -

parasympathetic and sympathetic.

Explanation:

PNS (peripheral nervous system) is one of the two branches of nervous system (the second being CNS that includes brain and spinal cord) that connects the CNS (central nervous system) to rest of the body parts (like different organs of body).

PNS is further divided into two branches-

1) Parasympathetic nervous system (controls the body at rest and homeostasis of body, called "rest and digest" function).

2) Sympathetic nervous system (controls the response of body to situations of threat and produces e "fight or flight" response).

The correct answer is "increased activity of the right hippocampal formation".
Hippocampus is a brain area which is part of the limbic system and is located below the cerebral cortex. Humans have two hippocampi, one in each side of the brain. Hippocampus is responsible for the formation of long-term memories, by participating in the consolidation of short-term to long-term memory. It also plays a very important role in spatial memory and orientation.
The task that this experienced cab-driver is asked to perform is related to spatial navigation and orientation abilities. The right hippocampus has been shown to participate in the formation of memory for locations in specific environments, while the left hippocampus has been shown to be involved in autobiographical and episodic memory. As a result, the PET scan will show an increased activity of the right hippocampus.
