ob) central nervous system
oc) sympathetic nervous system

Explanation:

The sympathetic nervous system activates the body's "fight - or - flight" response, which includes an increased heart rate and muscle tension in stressful situations like giving a presentation. The parasympathetic nervous system is for "rest - and - digest" and the central nervous system is not responsible for these immediate stress - related responses.
