Why do we smile when we’re nervous?

Someone asked me something serious and I answered “no” with a huge involuntary grin on my face. Why do we smile/laugh when we’re nervous, unable to control it?

Smiling is my default setting. I loved wearing masks because people couldn’t see my facial expressions. I honestly don’t know what else to do with my face. Plus when other people smile ate I get a serotonin boost. I like that I might do that for others.
