Name the two branches of the autonomic nervous system and describe the function of each branch.
Spinal nerves , cranial and branches
The autonomic nervous system controls the involuntary functions of the body, such as heart rate, digestion, and breathing. It has two branches: the sympathetic branch, which activates the body's "fight or flight" response, and the parasympathetic branch, which promotes relaxation and rest. Overall, the autonomic nervous system helps to maintain homeostasis and regulate vital bodily processes.
The two integral parts of the autonomic nervous system are the sympathetic nervous system responsible for, "rest and digest" and the parasympathetic nervous system that is responsible for, "fight or flight".
The hypothalamus is about the size of a pearl. It's function is the control center for integration of the peripheral autonomic nervous system. It is very important in maintaining homeostasis.
autonomic
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) contributes to the stability of the internal environment of the body (homeostasis). The autonomic nervous system continuously makes adjustments to our body to maintain equilibrium. The ANS regulates cardiac and smooth muscles and glands. One example of the function of the autonomic nervous system is when our pupils constrict when bright light is shining into our eyes. There are two main branches of the autonomic nervous system, the sympathetic and parasympathetic.
The autonomic nervous system is part of the Peripheral Nervous System, or PNS. The autonomic nervous system is responsible for involuntary movements, the smooth and cardiac muscles. Sympathetic (fight or flight) and Parasympathetic (rest and digest) are branches of the ANS.

motor, sensor, autonomic, and memory
The parasympathetic and sympathetic systems are branches of the autonomic nervous system.
The somatic and autonomic nervous systems make up the peripheral nervous system. The main function of this system is to connect the central nervous system to the limbs and organs in the body.
