Nonye Chukwudi · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  The sympathetic nervous system is responsible for the fight or flight response, which mobilises the body to respond to stress or danger by increasing heart rate, blood pressure, and adrenaline levels. This response prepares the body to exert tremendous energy in order to flee from an attacker or deal with other emergency situations. The somatic nervous system is responsible for voluntary muscle movements, the central nervous system is comprised of the brain and spinal cord, and the parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for calming the body down after a stress response.
