    Option-A

    Explanation:

    The nervous system which is activated during stress condition is known as the sympathetic nervous system.

    The sympathetic system produces the response to fight or flight in the body. The body releases hormones during stress condition which are the epinephrine and the cortisol. Both the hormones are produced from the adrenal gland.

    In the given question, since the person is in stressed condition but she is still fighting therefore the stress hormones are produced in large amount and the main hormones are the epinephrine and cortisol.

    Thus, Option-A is correct.
