A Correct answer
Explanation
Endomorphins are the chemical substance which is present in the neurons. It helps in the perception of pain, reactions to stress, and cardiovascular, respiratory and digestive functions. They are produced within the body so they are known as endogenous. They specifically work by binding to opoid receptors which are mainly found in nervous system and regulates the motor neurons and autonomic nervous system. The regulation of sympathetic and parasympathetic chain helps to control hunger.
So, the correct answer is option A.

D Correct answer
Explanation

The parasympathetic nervous system, or PSNS, is a part of the nervous system. The nervous system sends signals to and from different parts of the body via nerves. The PSNS is responsible for all the activities that take place when the body is at rest. During a period of flight and fight, the pupils dilate to allow us to see more clearly and make faster decisions. During rest and digest, the PSNS causes the pupils to constrict.

So, the correct option is ' Constriction of pupil '.
