Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In the case of the sympathetic nervous system, norepinephrine is released in response to stress. The blood vessels constrict, which increases peripheral resistance. At the same time, epinephrine is released in the adrenal medulla resulting in increased force of cardiac contraction, increased cardiac output, and vasoconstriction. The blood pressure also can be raised by the renin-angiotensin system. This results in vasoconstriction and decreased blood flow through the kidneys, which increases total peripheral resistance.
