Question 15 • Biology Sem 2 2025-2026

Which part of the autonomic system is most likely to be dominant while someone is napping after lunch?

Answer
A
the peripheral nervous system
B
the sympathetic nervous system
C
the somatic nervous system
D
the parasympathetic nervous system

Explanation

The parasympathetic nervous system is associated with “rest and digest” activities, including relaxation and digestion after a meal. During a nap after lunch, it is more likely to be dominant than the sympathetic system, which prepares the body for action. So the correct choice is the parasympathetic nervous system.
