One dark and stormy night you are walking down Woodland Avenue. The power has gone out causing the city to be bathed in darkness. The only time you can see the world around you is when the lightening of the oncoming storm causes temporary flashes of light, illuminating objects besides you, and immediately in front of you. The wind causes trees to rustle and gives you the perception that there are entities moving about you - but you have convinced yourself that it is just the wind. But then, you are startled by a moving shadow that you glimpse out of the corner of your eye. 1.) Which division of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) mobilizes your body's defenses? 2.) How does the mobilization of your body's defenses manifest (i.e., how is your body now responding)? After this initial startle response, you see that the shadow is just one of the hundreds of deer that comb through Duluthian's yards. 3.) Now what division of the autonomic nervous system is taking over? 4.) How does this autonomic nervous system division lessen your physiological arousal (i.e., now how is your body responding)? 5.) How do these autonomic divisions differ from the other main division, the somatic?

How do these autonomic divisions differ from the other main division, the somatic? 6.) *More of a critical thinking questions here. if you have alcohol in your system during this event, how might your response differ compared to somebody who is sober. Think about the impact on neurotransmitters and the way the body reacts to alcohol vs. the ANS defense response. There will be no true correct answer, I just want to evaluate how you are thinking about the material.
