Solution

The correct option is C sympathetic
The autonomic nervous system controls the involuntary functions of the internal organs. The autonomic nervous system is divided into the sympathetic and the parasympathetic system.
The sympathetic nervous system prepares the body for intense physical activity. The parasympathetic nervous system has the exact opposite effect and relaxes the body.
