Autonomic nervous system is that part of the nervous system that controls the body function that are not consciously controlled by the human brain like breathing, heartbeat, and digestive processes. Autonomic nervous system is a part of the peripheral nervous system. It works along with the somatic nervous system to regulate the body functions.
No, the sympathetic nervous system is a division of the autonomic nervous system responsible for the fight or flight response, while the central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. The central nervous system processes and interprets information and sends out commands to the rest of the body, including the sympathetic nervous system.
The CNS controls in short everything that we do, it controls the muscles and it is part of the brain going down the back to the CNS then to the spinal cord. In the CNS there is another part called the Autonomic Nervous system which controls everything that we don't realise, basically our reflexs. i.e. Pupil Dilation, Heart beat, perspiration and then you have breathing that works with the consicious, so we can control it as well.
* Central Nervous System controls everything that we do, musclar action and conscientous mind.
* Autonomic Nervous System controls our reflexs.
No.
If we divide the nervous system into a central and peripheral nervous system, as is done in neuroscience, then the central nervous system, or CNS, refers to the brain and spinal cord, while the peripheral nervous system, or PNS, refers to all the other nerves in the body.
The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are parts of the peripheral nervous system (a part known as the autonomic nervous system). Even though they have interactions with the CNS, they are not part of it.
For clarity, here is a simplified list of divisions:
1. Central Nervous System
A. the brain
B. the spinal cord
2. Peripheral Nervous System
A. the autonomic nervous system
a. the sympethetic nervous system
b. the parasympathetic nervous system
B. the somatic nervous system
Sympathetic nerves exit the central nervous system through the spinal nerves.
CNS is an acronym for Central Nervous System, thus they are the same thing.
The system that promotes the flight or fight response is the sympathetic nervous system. When activated, this system prepares the body to respond to perceived threats by increasing heart rate, dilating airways, and releasing stress hormones like adrenaline.
they are two types of glia cells. oligodendrocytes are responsible for the myelination of neurons in the central nervous system. swan cells perform the same function but in the peripheral nervous system.
The somatic nervous system controls voluntary muscle movements, while the autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary actions like heart rate and digestion. Additionally, the somatic nervous system consists of a single neuron pathway, while the autonomic system involves two neurons in a series.
Sympathetic nerves exit the central nervous system through the spinal nerves.
sympathetic chains
No, drugs can have vastly different effects on the central nervous system.
CNS is an acronym for Central Nervous System, thus they are the same thing.
The sympathetic nervous system prepares the body for "fight or flight" responses by increasing heart rate, dilating airways, and releasing adrenaline. The parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for "rest and digest" functions by slowing heart rate, constricting airways, and promoting digestion and relaxation. Together, they help maintain balance in the autonomic nervous system.
Information from the same sense organs is conveyed to the central nervous system by specialized sensory neurons, which convert physical stimuli into electrical signals known as action potentials. These action potentials travel along nerve fibers to the central nervous system where they are processed and interpreted.
The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, and a complex network of neurons. This system is responsible for sending, receiving, and interpreting information from all parts of the body. The nervous system monitors and coordinates internal organ function and responds to changes in the external environment. This system can be divided into two parts: the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. Let's take a look at the peripheral nervous system.Peripheral Nervous SystemThere are two types of cells in the peripheral nervous system. These cells carry information to (sensory nervous cells) and from (motor nervous cells) the central nervous system (CNS). Cells of the sensory nervous system send information to the CNS from internal organs or from external stimuli. Motor nervous system cells carry information from the CNS to organs, muscles, and glands. The motor nervous system is divided into the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system. The somatic nervous system controls skeletal muscle as well as external sensory organs such as the skin. This system is said to be voluntary because the responses can be controlled consciously. Reflex reactions of skeletal muscle however are an exception. These are involuntary reactions to external stimuli.The autonomic nervous system controls involuntary muscles, such as smooth and cardiac muscle. This system is also called the involuntary nervous system. The autonomic nervous system can further be divided into the parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions.The parasympathetic division controls various functions which include inhibiting heart rate, constricting pupils, and contracting the bladder. The nerves of the sympathetic division often have an opposite effect when they are located within the same organs as parasympathetic nerves. Nerves of the sympathetic division speed up heart rate, dilate pupils, and relax the bladder. The sympathetic system is also involved in the flight or fight response. This is a response to potential danger that results in accelerated heart rate and an increase in metabolic rate.Thats all I know about a nervous system and spinal nerves hope it is helpful.

Ipsilateral means on the same side of the body, so the right ear and right eye are ipsilateral. For the central nervous system, an example would be that the right frontal lobe and the right occipital lobe are ipsilateral.
The autonomic nervous system that controls the functions within the body. Some functions that it controls are the heartbeat, digestive system, and breathing. The autonomic nervous system is the part of the peripheral nervous system that acts as a control system. It functions largely below the level of consciousness to control visceral functions.
