A. She is anxious after failing her English test.
Reason: The adrenal glands (especially the adrenal medulla) secrete adrenaline/noradrenaline in response to emotional or physical stress (fight-or-flight). Low blood sugar is mainly corrected by pancreatic glucagon (though adrenal hormones can contribute), and stomachache or breath‑holding are not primary triggers for adrenal hormone release.
