After a game of football, David tries to calm down by relaxing in the swimming pool. He tries to get this breath back and relax to avoid muscle cramps. In this scenario, which part of the autonomic nervous system he most ikely involved in calming David's body?
A) the sympathetic nervous system
B) the parasympathetic nervous system
C) the central nervous system
D) the somatic nervous item

B) the parasympathetic nervous system

Explanation:

The parasympathetic nervous system is a division of the autonomic nervous system. Once the stress or emergency conditions are over, the activation of the parasympathetic nervous system calms down the person. This division of the nervous system slows down the responses generated by the sympathetic nervous system during stress conditions. The parasympathetic nervous system activates digestion and absorption of the nutrients, slows down the breathing and heart rate so that the energy level of the body cells is restored. After a football game, the activated parasympathetic nervous system will calm down David.

i might be wrong but i think its a. let me know if i’m right and have a good rest of your day!

these muscles maintain the blood pressure in the vessels. the smooth muscles are innervated by nerves of the autonomic nervous system. when the muscles contract, they cause vasoconstriction of the vessels and increase blood pressure. when the muscles relax, they enable vasodilation of the   blood vessels hence reduce blood pressure.
