The autonomic nervous system regulates the heart and lungs, specifically through the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches. The sympathetic nervous system increases heart rate and dilates airways during stress or physical activity, while the parasympathetic nervous system slows the heart rate and constricts airways during rest. Additionally, the brainstem, particularly the medulla oblongata, plays a crucial role in controlling the rhythmic functions of both the heart and respiration.
