The correct answer is a. emergencies; relaxation.
The sympathetic nervous system is a part of the autonomous nervous system which is active during the fight or flight reactions (in response to a harmful event, attack, or threat). The parasympathetic nervous system is complementary to sympathetic and it stimulates the body to "feed and breed" and to "rest-and-digest".
