If a person had a diseased autonomic nervous system the kinds of functions most directly affected would be things such as?

Heart rate, blood pressure regulation, digestion, temperature regulation, and bladder control would be most directly affected by a diseased autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system controls these involuntary bodily functions.


Is the autonomic nervous system under conscious control?

The nervous system controls many things, almost everything in our bodies. Here is a list that probably could be much longer:BehaviorCognitionMemoryEmotionsMetabolismHomeostasisDigestionRespirationHeart rateBlood pressureand much more...


What are three things in the nervous system?

The nervous system is broken into the central and autonomic nervous systems. The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. The autonomic nervous system contains the peripheral nerves.


What does the voluntary nervous system control?

the somatic system control everything


What makes up the automatic nervous system?

I think you mean the 'Autonomic' nervous system. It is responsible for regulating internal organs, among other things.


What has two systems using cranial and spinal nerves?

The peripheral nervous system has two main systems that use cranial and spinal nerves: the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system. The somatic nervous system controls voluntary movements and sensations, while the autonomic nervous system controls involuntary processes such as heart rate, digestion, and respiration.


The division of the autonomic nervous system that acts in times of emergency is the?

The sympathetic nervous system is the "fight or flight" part -- in times of stress, it is what kicks in to get things handled. Once the danger is removed (or stress), the parasympathetic kicks in, which calms you down.


Which system helps us to feel things?

Its the Nervous system.


Responsibility of the autonomic nervous system?

All the unvoluntary things.... You have the parasympathetic nervous and the sympathetic nervous system. Parasympathetic nervous system: Long pre-g, short post-g aka the craniosacral nervous system - The slow responses.... like slow heart rate by vagus nerve Sympathetic nervous system: Short preg-, long post-g aka the thoracolumbar nervous system - Fight or flight responses like increase heart rate . Pre-g nicotinic stimulation to adrenal medulla which releases adrenaline (epinephrine)


What advantage does the nervous system have over the endocrine system?

The messages of the nervous system are relayed by nervous impulses, which are very fast and short-acting. In contrast, the messages of the endocrine system are sent via chemical messengers (hormones) distributed by the circulatory system. This distribution in your blood is much slower than the electrical impulses of the nervous system.


What describes the ANS?

Autonomic Nervous System is part of the peripheral nervous system (in the limbs and parts of the body outside the Brain and spinal cord) which is INVOLUNTARY, and not under our concious control. Thus it controls things like the heart and breathing that we need in order to survive. it is the opposite to the somatic nervous system which is voluntary. like arm muscle movements etc. the ANS uses sympathetic (adrenaline) and parasympathetic (acetylcholine) controls. motor fibers that conduct nerve impulses from the CNS to smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands :)


What do nerves of somatic nervous system control?

The nerves of the somatic nervous system control many different things. They carry the sensory data into the spinal cord, carry information into and out of the brain stem, and integrate sensory input and motor output.
