Summary Introduction
To review:
The functional differences between the sympathetic and parasympathetic division of the ANS (autonomic nervous system) in general and in reference to the working of the cardiovascular and digestive systems.
Introduction:
ANS is a portion of the motor system under the peripheral nervous system (PNS). It regulates the body function, which acts automatically or unconsciously, such as respiratory rate, heart rate (HR), urination, papillary response, sexual arousal, and digestion. It acts on smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands.
