Step-by-step explanation:

pain causes an individual to move away from the source of pain. the PNS, the perifreal nervous system is responsible for this reaction or "fight or flight" reaction. Example; extreme heat or fire will cause this reaction, say your taking a meal out of the oven and a part of your hand wasn't protected..initially u felt the burn on part of your hand which caused you to throw the tray down..
