Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Epinephrine is released by the adrenal glands, which are located on top of the kidneys. It is a hormone that is involved in the "fight or flight" response, helping to prepare the body for physical activity and stress. It is not produced by nuclei in the brainstem, the central nucleus of the amygdala, or involved in activating the basolateral amygdala.
