The table shows how three glands respond to a stressful situation. Using the table, which gland and hormone work together to prepare the body to react quickly?

Answer Details

Reacting quickly to danger is the fight-or-flight response, produced by the adrenal gland and adrenaline, which raises heart rate to ready the body fast. The pancreas with insulin lowers glucose after a meal, the pancreas with glucagon raises glucose during fasting, and the ovary with oestrogen controls puberty, so those gland-hormone pairs handle slower, longer-term changes rather than a rapid emergency response.
