Richard's sympathetic nervous system will take over, and his parasympathetic nervous system will have a lesser role. The fight or flight response becomes activated by the sympathetic system. The SNS releases adrenaline and norepinephrine from the medulla of the adrenal glands, increasing the heart rate and breathing, constricting blood vessels and tightening muscles.
