Detailed explanation-1: -The adrenal medulla, the inner part of an adrenal gland, controls hormones that initiate the flight or fight response. The main hormones secreted by the adrenal medulla include epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine (noradrenaline), which have similar functions.
Detailed explanation-2: -It does not secrets hormones which maintain the correct salt balance in the blood.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: The answer is D. The sympathetic division stimulates the adrenal gland (medulla) to release epinephrine and norepinephrine. The sympathetic division of the ANS stimulates the adrenal medulla, not the parasympathetic division.
