The limbic system is involved in emotional regulation and stress responses, which can lead to physiological changes such as a rapid heart rate (A), high blood pressure (B), and stress-related conditions like peptic ulcer disease (C). Increased peristalsis (D) and slow respirations (E) are not typically associated with limbic system disorders.
