What part of the brain controlos allergies?
Allergies are primarily controlled by the immune system's response to foreign substances, not by a specific part of the brain. The brain may indirectly modulate allergic reactions through stress or emotional responses.
What effect does epinephrine have on the vascular system?
Epinephrine causes vasoconstriction in blood vessels, leading to an increase in blood pressure and redirection of blood flow to vital organs such as the heart and brain. This response is part of the body's "fight or flight" reaction to stress or danger.
What part of the brain stimulates the physiologic response to stress?
The hypothalamus is a key brain structure that initiates the physiological response to stress. It activates the body's stress response system, known as the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, leading to the release of stress hormones like cortisol. This triggers the body's fight-or-flight response to help cope with the perceived threat.
What part of the brain calms your body down?
The amygdala, a part of the brain involved in processing emotions, can signal the hypothalamus to trigger the "calming down" response by activating the parasympathetic nervous system. This can lead to a decrease in heart rate, blood pressure, and other physiological indicators of stress.
Why does age affect reaction time?
It depends on the type of task you are doing. As you get older your muscle movement part of reaction time gets slower but your initial reaction time i.e. the brain acknowledging, the visual and deciding what to do is the same as younger individuals. Reaction time shortens from infancy into the late 20s. Then reaction time slowly increases from 50s and 60s. The Reaction time lengthens faster as the person gets into their 70s. Hope this helps :D
What part of the body determines who is first?
your head(brain)
What determines which part of your brain will be lost during puberty?

What part of the brain effects your reaction time?
The part of the brain that connects to the spinal cord. The brain stem controls functions basic to the survival of all animals, such as heart sensory information from the body including calculating location and speed of objects.
What part of the brain initially activates the SAM system and the HPA axis?
The amygdala in the brain is responsible for initially activating the sympathetic-adrenal-medullary (SAM) system in response to stress. The hypothalamus is the brain structure that triggers the activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in response to stress.
What part of the brain stimulates the physiologic response to stress?

This triggers the body's fight-or-flight response to help cope with the perceived threat.
Is the brain and spinal cord part of the endocrine system?
The hypothalamus, the small fore-brain structure involved in regulating eating, drinking, and sex; directing the endocrine system; and monitoring emotion, stress, and reward.
What part of the brain controls how long it takes to rect?
One of the limiting factors on reaction time is the chemical/electrical synapses.
What part of the body handles everyday stress?
Heart, brain, eyes, arms, legs, back, chest, torso, buttocks, neck, mouth. Basically every part of the body
What part of the ear determines the pitch of a sound?
That would be the brain. The ear itself is only designed to transfer the wave frequency through the hair cells in the cocchlea to the auditory nerve. The auditory nerve sends the signal to the brain where it is interpreted.
What is residual stress?
Residual stress is the stress remains in the part after the part has been cut, formed, or bent
