Voluntary (such as walking or moving your arm up and down) and involuntary (your heart beating or your eyes blinking) actions are all controlled by the brain. These functions are carried out because receptor cells carry impulses to the brain to tell it what it must do. Then, the brain sends back signals telling the body part to complete the function. This all happens in less than a second. Pretty cool stuff.
