9. Describe the "fight or flight", acute stress response
sympathetic re-
sponse.

10. what happens mobilize energy, HR and BP increase; shunt blood away from skin and viscera into

terns of in- ex. parasympathetic nerve slows HR and sympathetic nerve accelerates HR; both
nervation and can be working at the same time
regulation for 2. innervation by both divisions of ANS and the effects are complimentary
the sympathetic ex. in the male reproductive system the parasympathetic nerve regulates erection
and parasympa- while sympathetic regulate ejaculation
thetic responses? 3. innervation and regulation by only one division
ex. blood vessels regulated exclusively by sympathetic nerves
