Parasympathetic division
A
lowers heart rate
B
raises heart rate
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) releases the hormone acetylcholine to slow the heart rate. Such factors as stress, caffeine, and excitement may temporarily accelerate your heart rate, while meditating or taking slow, deep breaths may help to slow your heart rate.

Detailed explanation-2: -The higher the vagus nerve activity is, the slower the heart rate is, the greater the increase in the parasympathetic component of heart rate variability is, and the better the outcome is. In HF, heart rate is less regulated by parasympathetic activation.

Detailed explanation-3: -In the stomach and intestines, parasympathetic stimulation of M receptors leads to increased motility and relaxation of sphincters. Stimulation of M receptors also increases gastric secretions to aid in digestion. In the gallbladder, parasympathetic stimulation of M3 receptors stimulates contraction to release bile.
