Answer:

Activation of the adrenal glands

Step-by-step explanation:

The sympathetic nervous system directs the body's response to dangerous or stressful situations. When the sympathetic nervous system is stimulated, the nerves prepare the organs for stress. This includes increasing the heart rate and increasing the blood flow to one's muscles, both of which are regulated by your adrenal glands.
