My lesson said that C was wrong
The correct answer is D) The digestive system transmits feelings of fullness to the nervous system, which signals metabolism to stop.
When the body's energy levels become too low, the digestive system sends signals to the brain indicating hunger, which initiates the process of eating. Once the body has obtained sufficient energy from food, the digestive system then sends signals of fullness to the nervous system, which in turn signals metabolism to stop. This helps prevent the internal energy levels from dropping too low.
