Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for rest and digest activities, such as secretion of bile and digestive enzymes, and stimulation of tear production. However, the secretion of epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for the fight or flight response. Therefore, choice C would not occur due to stimulation of the parasympathetic nervous system.
