15. A 45-year-old woman says that her feet feel hot. The skin of her feet is pink, dry, and hot. Which of the following fibers are most likely to be disrupted? A) Autonomic afferent B) Postganglionic sympathetic C) Preganglionic parasympathetic D) Somatic cutaneous afferent I know this was discussed but couldn't find the thread. so, what's the answer? I think is D
