Solution

The correct option is A SA node
Epinephrine, more commonly known as adrenaline, is a hormone secreted by the medulla of the adrenal glands. Strong emotions such as fear or anger cause epinephrine to be released into the bloodstream, which acts on the sinoatrial node resulting in an increase in heartrate, muscle strength, blood pressure, and sugar metabolism.
