Answer:

c. fight-or-flight

Step-by-step explanation:

When an animal is confronted with the crime, its body is institiously alert. The heart accelerates, the pupils dilate, and stress hormones are thrown into the bloodstream. This applies to humans as well.

This situation leads to a common discharge of the sympathetic nervous system that leads the animal to remain and fight against the threat or to flee. This is the response that occurs when a person encounters a snake.
