Detailed explanation-1: -Thus, the correct answer is option (C), ‘The adrenal medulla, leading to increased secretion of epinephrine and norepinephrene’.
Detailed explanation-2: -Final Answer: Fight or flight reactions cause the activation of the adrenal medulla, leading to increased secretion of epinephrine and norepinephrine.
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Central cholinergic stimulation causes adrenal epinephrine release.
Detailed explanation-5: -These glands respond by pumping the hormone epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) into the bloodstream. As epinephrine circulates through the body, it brings on a number of physiological changes.
