Explanation:

The parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) restores the body to a relaxed state after an emergency (sympathetic activation). Sweating stops as PNS reduces arousal. Heart rate lowers (PNS slows heart rate; sympathetic increases it). Goosebumps are a sympathetic (fight - flight) response, so they don't occur with PNS takeover.

Answer:

• Sweating stops
• Heart rate lowers
