how does eating a piece of Pizza involve both the somatic and autonomic nervous system
Biting, chewing & swallowing are somatic, the rest of digestion is autonomic.
Skeletal muscles, which are effectors, are involved in somatic reflexes. Somatic reflexes involve voluntary control of skeletal muscles and are part of the somatic nervous system. Autonomic reflexes, on the other hand, involve the control of smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands, and are part of the autonomic nervous system.
somatic is voluntary autonomic is involuntary.
The two functional classifications of reflexes are autonomic reflexes, which regulate activities of smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands, and somatic reflexes, which involve skeletal muscles. Autonomic reflexes are involuntary and controlled by the autonomic nervous system, while somatic reflexes are voluntary and controlled by the somatic nervous system.
autonomic
No, the regulation of blood pressure is not considered a somatic reflex. It is primarily controlled by autonomic reflexes involving the cardiovascular system, which are regulated by the autonomic nervous system and hormones. Somatic reflexes typically involve skeletal muscles and are responsible for voluntary movements.
Yes, the somatic nervous system is voluntary. In contrast, the autonomic nervous system is involuntary.
