Sympathetic nervous system activation will increase the frequency and force of cardiac myocyte contractility
The nervous system is communicating with the body every moment that you are alive. It sounds like you are refering to some kind of muscle spasm or tension.
The central nervous system supplies the body and muscle contraction. Striated muscle (skeletal muscle) contract voluntary with exception of the heart which is striated involuntary smooth muscle.
The portion of the nervous system that is most closely associated with the contraction of the cardiac muscle is the autonomic nervous system.
Autonomic Nervous System
Nerve impulses that originate in the central nervous system cause muscles to contract. Muscle fiber generates tension during the action of actin and myosin cross-bridge cycling. While under tension, the muscle may lengthen, shorten, or remain the same.
somatic nervous system which is a part of peripheral nervous system.
Nervous system.
The two subdivisions of the motor subdivision are the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system. The somatic nervous system transmits action potentials from the CNS to skeletal muscle, and the autonomic nervous system transmits action potentials from the CNS to smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands.
The nervous system is divided into two parts: I. Central Nervous System a. Brain b. Spinal Cord II. Peripheral Nervous System a. Somatic Nervous System (voluntary muscle movements) b. Autonomic Nervous System (involuntary muscle movements) 1. Sympathetic Nervous System (flight or fight) 2. Parasympathetic Nervous System (rest and digest)
The effector such as a muscle or gland brings about response in the nervous system.
