The lacrimal gland, responsible for tear production shows increased activity under parasympathetic stimulation leading to increased tear secretion. Sweat glands which produce sweat to regulate body temperature also experience increased activity under parasympathetic control. The arrector pili muscles which are responsible for causing goosebumps, contract under the parasympathetic influence. Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.
