Detailed explanation-1: -The sympathetic division of the ANS is involved in preparing the body for behaviour, particularly in response to stress, by activating the organs and the glands in the endocrine system.
Detailed explanation-2: -Emotional states are accompanied by arousal, our experiences of the bodily responses created by the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system.
Detailed explanation-3: -Your sympathetic nervous system is a network of nerves that helps your body activate its “fight-or-flight” response. This system’s activity increases when you’re stressed, in danger or physically active.
Detailed explanation-4: -The sympathetic pathway can be divided into three following components: The preganglionic neurons, The sympathetic ganglia, The postganglionic neurons.
Detailed explanation-5: -The sympathetic nervous system functions like a gas pedal in a car. It triggers the fight-or-flight response, providing the body with a burst of energy so that it can respond to perceived dangers. The parasympathetic nervous system acts like a brake.
