Why have you classified some of the action as involuntary voluntary?

Actions that one can control are governed by the peripheral nervous system and are called voluntary actions. As I am typing this, I am very much in control over the way my fingers move.

Actions that an individual cannot control such as the beating of the heart, peristaltic action and reflexes are under the control of the central nervous system and are called involuntary actions.
