Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: The spinal cord is not considered the integration center.
Rationale 2: The hypothalamus is the main integration center of the ANS.
Rationale 3: The cerebellum is an area in the brain that affects the ANS, but it is not considered the integration center.
Rationale 4: The cerebral cortex is an area of higher center in the brain that affects the ANS, but it is not considered the integration center.
Global Rationale: The hypothalamus is the main integration center of the ANS. The spinal cord is not considered the integration center. The cerebellum and the cerebral cortex are both areas in the brain that affect the ANS, but they are not considered the integration center.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1,4,5
Rationale 1: Becoming angry is considered an involuntary response that is a signal from higher centers in the brain to the autonomic nervous system.
Rationale 2: Tripping over a chair is a voluntary response.
Rationale 3: Complaining of nausea is a voluntary response.
Rationale 4: Feeling depressed is considered an involuntary response that is a signal from higher centers in the brain to the autonomic nervous system.
Rationale 5: Being happy is considered an involuntary response that is a signal from higher centers in the brain to the autonomic nervous system.
Global Rationale: Becoming angry, feeling depressed, and being happy are all considered involuntary responses that are a signal from higher centers in the brain to the autonomic nervous system. Tripping over a chair and complaining of nausea are both voluntary responses.
