The sympathetic nervous system is responsible for the "fight or flight" response, which involves increasing heart rate and releasing epinephrine into the bloodstream in response to a perceived threat, such as the presence of a scorpion. The other options (enteric and sensory) are not directly related to this physiological response, and the parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for the "rest and digest" response, which is the opposite of the "fight or flight" response.
