am i right? submit answer
0:42 2:41 3:00 3:48

Explanation:

Stimulation of the vagus nerve (parasympathetic) slows heart rate (bradycardia) and can cause vasodilation leading to low blood pressure (hypotension). Tachycardia is increased heart rate (sympathetic), hypertension is high BP. So vagus stimulation leads to bradycardia and hypotension.

Answer:

C. bradycardia and hypotension (assuming the third option is labeled C; if options are as per the image, the left - lower option: "bradycardia and hypotension")
