उत्तर

Adrenal gland

It is called the emergency gland because its medulla secretes adrenaline and noradrenaline during fear, anger, stress, pain or danger. These hormones prepare the body for the “fight-or-flight” response by increasing heart rate, blood pressure, breathing rate and the supply of energy to muscles.
