How does our body respond when adrenaline is secreted into the blood ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Blood takes adrenaline to its target sites. Out heart beats faster resulting in more supply of `O_(2)` and glucose to our muscle. In lever, glycogen changes into glucose.
Breathing increases. This make more `O_(2)` available. Blood supply to digestive system and skin is reduced and more blood is passed to skeletal muscles.
