Question
Chapter 24.2, Problem 1AWYK
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
Reason for a feeling of dry mouth during nervousness.
Introduction:
Dry mouth is a kind of feeling when the mouth does not have enough amount of saliva. The decrease in the salvation process is controlled by the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system is comprised of the sympathetic and parasympathetic division. An increase and decrease in the activity of these two divisions may affect various physiological processes.

Those were merely the mechanics of stuttering, the realities to which one who stutters adjusts his expectations of life. Rather, what was most pervasive about my stutter is the strange role it played in determining how I felt about others, about you. My stutter became a barometer of how much confidence I felt in your presence. Did I perceive you as friendly, patient, kind? Or as brash and aggressive? How genuine was your smile? Did you admire my talents, or were you wary of my more unseemly traits? In this way I divided the world into two types of people: those around whom I stuttered and those around whom I might not. The onset of my stutter occurred under typical circumstances: I was 4; I had a father who carried a stutter into adulthood; and, at the time,…arrow_forwardImagine that you're hiking in the mountains one afternoon with friends.
