The involuntary nervous system that is involved with organ regulation is called the Autonomic nervous system (ANS) and is comprised of the Sympathetic nervous system and the Parasympathetic nervous system.

Is the autonomic nervous system?
The autonomic nervous system that controls the functions within the body. Some functions that it controls are the heartbeat, digestive system, and breathing. The autonomic nervous system is the part of the peripheral nervous system that acts as a control system. It functions largely below the level of consciousness to control visceral functions.
Is autonomic central system part of central nervous system?
The autonomic nervous system is a division of the peripheral nervous system that controls automatic responses in the body, such as the heart rate, hormone levels, gastrointestinal functions, and metabolism.
What describes the autonomic nervous system?
The nervous system (NS) can be divided into the central nervous system (CNS) which is the brain and spinal cord and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) which is the rest of the body. One of the general functions of the NS is Motor function. Motor function uses peripheral neurons so this particular function belongs to the PNS. Motor functions can be divided into two categories: (1) As motor functions of the Somatic Nervous System and (2) as motor functions of the Autonomic Nervous System. The Somatic nervous system is voluntary and controls skeletal muscle. The autonomic nervous system, or ANS, is that part of the peripheral nervous system that is involuntary. The ANS controls and regulates smooth muscle, cardiac muscle and glands. Most neuron axons in the ANS are unmyelinated and myelinated axons are rare. It's not possible to describe the ANS without also describing the SNS and mentioning at least one of the functions (Motor function)of the nervous system. You need to see how they all fit together.
Seven vital body functions are controlled by the?
The hypothalamus
What are the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system divisions of?
I just got this question, and I couldn't find it on the Internet, but my Biology book says the autonomic nervous system. If you have the same book, the answer is D. Good luck! :D
What is the nervous system that functions without conscious effort?
The autonomic nervous system functions independently and continuously without conscious effort.
Is the autonomic nervous system?
The autonomic nervous system that controls the functions within the body. Some functions that it controls are the heartbeat, digestive system, and breathing. The autonomic nervous system is the part of the peripheral nervous system that acts as a control system. It functions largely below the level of consciousness to control visceral functions.
What is autonomic dysfunction?
Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is known as dysautonomia. The autonomic nervous system regulates unconscious body functions.
What is the nervous system branch that regulates involuntary functions?
The Autonomic Nervous System.
How many divisions of the autonomic nervous system are there?
The autonomic nervous system is responsible for the control of the functions of the internal organs and it has two divisions. These are the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system.
Which division of the nervous system is dedicated to subconscious functions?
motor divsion autonomic nervous system

What system responsible for regulating the calmer functions of your existence?
A division of our autonomic nervous system is the parasympathetic nervous system which is nicknamed the "rest and digest" nervous system.

What does the hypothalamus do in the body?
Hypothalamus is supposed to be the highest center in of autonomic nervous system in your body. Autonomic nervous system is supposed to be responsible for all the automatic functions going on in your body.
