Question

Study the following and pick up the correct combinations: \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{|c|l|l|l|} \hline S.No. & Organ & Sympathetic Nervous System & Parasympathetic Nervous System
\hline I) & Eyes & Pupil constricts & Pupil dilates
\hline II) & Blood vessels & Constricts & Dilates
\hline III) & Digestive tract & Inhibits peristalsis & Increases peristalsis
\hline IV) & Pancreas & Stimulates activity & Inhibits activity
\hline \end{tabular} \end{center}

• A. I, II
• B. III, IV
• C. I, IV
• D. II, III

Hint:

Remember: Sympathetic = "fight or flight" (inhibits digestion, constricts vessels), Parasympathetic = "rest and digest" (enhances digestion, dilates vessels).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

- II: Blood vessels constrict under sympathetic control and dilate under parasympathetic control — correct.
- III: The sympathetic system inhibits digestion (reduces peristalsis), while the parasympathetic system increases it — correct.
- I and IV: Pupil dilation is a sympathetic response; stimulation of pancreatic activity is parasympathetic — both statements are incorrect in the table.
