Under states of pressure, the whole sympathetic nervous system is enacted, delivering a prompt boundless reaction called the battle or-flight reaction. This reaction is described by the arrival of huge amounts of epinephrine from the adrenal organ, an expansion in pulse, an expansion in heart yield, skeletal muscle vasodilation, cutaneous and gastrointestinal vasoconstriction, pupillary widening, bronchial enlargement, and piloerection. The general impact is to set up the person for up and coming threat
