What is the peripheral system?
THE PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM AKA (PNS) :consists of sensory and motor neurons that transmit information to and from the central nervous system.includes all neurons that are not part of the nervous system, including the peripheral nervous system can be classified further as being either part of the somatic nervous system or part of the autonomic nervous system.It makes up the somatic and the autonomic nervous system.
As part of which nervous system do postganglionic neurons release norepinephrine?
Sympathetic nervous system, which is part of autonomic nervous system.
What part of the nervous system controls your internal organs?
the autonomic nervous system
Which part of the autonomic system decreases pulse rate?
The parasympathetic nervous system, part of the autonomic nervous system, decreases pulse rate. It is sometimes referred to as the rest and digest system.
What part of the autonomic nervous system that conserves body's energy?
The parasympathetic nervous system.
What part of the nervous system is the sympathetic and parasympathetic?
No. While they are both composed of neurons and support cells, they are classified under different branches of the nervous system. The brain is a part of the central nervous system, while the autonomic nervous system is part of the peripheral nervous system.

What is the third part of the nervous system called?
Autonomic nervous system
What is the autonomic nervous system part of?
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.
Is the sympathetic nervous system same as central nervous system?
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.
Is the medulla oblongata part of somatic and autonomic nervous system?
autonomic
As part of which nervous system do postganglionic neurons release norepinephrine?
Sympathetic nervous system, which is part of autonomic nervous system.
What part of the nervous system controls your internal organs?
the autonomic nervous system
What is a part of the nervous system not under voluntary control?
each and every part of body is controlled by the nervous system.
If the doctor swabs the back of your throat and you gag is this somatic or autonomic reflexes?
The gag reflex is an involuntary reflex, therefore it is an autonomic reflex. The peripheral nervous system is the part of the nervous system outside the central nervous system (which consists of the brain and spinal cord). The peripheral nervous system is split into two parts - the somatic nervous system and the autonomic system. The somatic system controls voluntary skeletal muscle movements and the autonomic system controls involuntary or automatic actions.
What part of the autonomic nervous system that conserves body's energy?
The parasympathetic nervous system.
