Solution

The correct option is B Sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system
  • The function of our visceral organs is controlled by the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system.
  • Activation of the sympathetic system prepares the body for intense physical activity emergencies and stress.
  • In this case, the blood is diverted away from the visceral organ and skin.
  • Whereas stimulation of the parasympathetic nerve can result in a slowing of the heart, dilation of visceral blood vessels, and increased activity of the digestive tract.

So, option B is the correct option.
