Question

40 functionally, the adrenal medulla has the same effects on the body as the nervous system. multiple choice sensory parasympathetic somatic sympathetic

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The adrenal medulla secretes hormones like epinephrine and norepinephrine. These hormones mimic the effects of the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for the "fight - or - flight" response. The sympathetic nervous system increases heart rate, dilates pupils, and redirects blood flow to muscles, similar to what the adrenal medulla hormones do. The sensory nervous system is for transmitting sensory information. The parasympathetic nervous system is for the "rest - and - digest" response (opposite of the effects we are looking for). The somatic nervous system controls voluntary muscle movements.

Answer:

sympathetic
