Solution

The correct option is A True
The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are a part of autonomic nervous system (ANS). They control the involuntary actions like heart rate, breathing rate, body temperature, etc. The sympathetic nervous system prepares our body for a flight or fight response whereas the parasympathetic nervous system prepares our body to relax or brings it back to the normal condition.
