A patient tells a nurse, "I can't remember anything right before or after my wreck, but the officer told me that I left lots of black marks trying to stop." The nurse explains to the patient:
1. "When scared, the parasympathetic system stimulates the fight-or-flight response." 2. "Your fight-or-flight response pumps adrenaline into your system, which enhances your ability to react quickly." 3.
