As you walk home from the movie theater, you think that you hear footsteps behind you. Suddenly, you notice that your heart rate has increased and you are breathing quickly. What portion of the nervous system has been activated? Sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system Parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system Sympathetic division of the somatic nervous system Parasympathetic division of the somatic nervous system B not sure tho

I would say B but if you want to, get a second opinion bc i could be wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not B. That would cause the heart rate to decrease and body relax. The body is tense in this situation. Try again ><

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it A

OpenStudy (amurciano2):

I think your right.

OpenStudy (amurciano2):

Wait. Parasympathetic is calming down. It has to be sympathetic autonomic

OpenStudy (anonymous):
