Chapter 11, Problem 3RQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The two different branches of the autonomic nervous system.
Introduction: The autonomic nervous system is a part of the efferent division of the peripheral nervous system that controls the involuntary responses of the body of an organism. It controls the body function such as digestion, respiratory rate, heart rate, and pupillary response.
Summary Introduction
To determine: The anatomical and physiological differences between the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system.
Introduction: The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are the parts of the autonomic nervous system. These nervous systems are located in the different regions of the body and perform different functions.
