Solution
The correct option is C Adrenaline
Adrenaline is secreted by adrenal medulla during a stressful situation. It increases the metabolic rate, dilation of blood vessels that enter the heart and the brain.
The blood vessels of the skin and kidneys constrict to supply more blood to the heart and the brain. Hence it initiates a quick reaction in a person during stress.
This is called a fight and flight response. Hence adrenaline is called emergency hormone. Thus the correct answer is option C.
