Question
your body has an amazing \alarm system\ that gets you ready for action. which part of your nervous system is like the \brake pedal\ that helps you calm down after the alarm? (a) sympathetic nervous system (sns) (b) parasympathetic nervous system (psns) (c) central nervous system (cns)
The parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS) is responsible for the body's "rest - and - digest" functions and helps calm the body down after the stress response triggered by the sympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system activates the "fight - or - flight" response. The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord and is not the "brake pedal" for calming down after an alarm.
