What nervous system regulates the blood?
A good example is the baroreflex. Pressure sensors signal to the nervous system to increase venous return when we go from lying to standing. The nervous system controls the contraction of the veins which forces blood from the legs back to the heart. The nervous system can also increase the stimulation to the heart increasing the number of beats per minute. The net effect of the blood that is returned into the circulation and the increases heart rate act to restore blood pressure to it's proper level.

The sympathetic nervous system prepares the body to act during times of stress---that is, to undergo the complex of changes known as the fight-or-flight response. The parasympathetic system conserves and restores the body's resources.
