Francis · Answer 1

An example of Hector's somatic sensory system is in control is well demonstrated when after a long run, his body is sweating.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The somatic sensory system of the body refers to the living sensory system which is the system of sending response to the body in response to the stimuli felt or sensed. The motor neurons and sensory neuron comprises the system and when ever there is a change in the body outer or inner core which forms an stimuli, signals the somatic sensory system, and a response is signalled back.

So, when the Hector is running for a long time, the body heats up due to constant retraction and expansion of the muscle due to friction, the glucose molecule as energy is also exhausted, so counter the change, sensory system, cools the body from the heat produced, the cooling of the body is achieved by sweating. Therefore, Option A is the correct answer.
