The sympathetic nervous system is responsible for the "fight or flight" response, which involves an increase in blood sugar levels to provide energy for the body to respond to a perceived threat. Therefore, it raises blood sugar levels. Additionally, the pupils of the eyes dilate to allow for better vision in a heightened state of awareness, so the sympathetic nervous system would dilate the pupils.
