Chapter 17, Problem 14RFT
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The division of the peripheral nervous system that supplies glands as well as smooth muscles affecting the function of the internal organs is called the autonomic nervous system (ANS). The ANS consists of two divisions called the parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions. Often, the two systems are observed working opposite to each other.
