Antagonistic
The parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions of the autonomic nervous system or antagonistic. They have opposing effects.
The parasympathetic nervous system is a division of the autonomic nervous system. It works in opposition to the sympathetic nervous system to regulate bodily functions at rest and promote relaxation.
somatic is voluntary autonomic is involuntary.
The autonomic tone is regulated by the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions of the autonomic nervous system, which act in opposition to each other to maintain homeostasis. Various factors such as stress, emotions, hormones, and external stimuli can influence this balance and thus regulate autonomic tone.

There is some evidence to suggest that psychopaths may have differences in autonomic nervous system functioning compared to non-psychopathic individuals, such as reduced fear responses. However, more research is needed to fully understand the relationship between psychopathy and autonomic arousal.

The somatic nervous system is the voluntary part of the brain and it operates under conscious control. The autonomic nervous system is the part of the brain that is involuntary, and that humans have no control over.
the autonomic nervous system (ANS) includes the peripheal nerves and ganglia on either side of the spinal cord ( note: some textbooks include the ANS as a division pf the peripheal nervous system both ways are correct.)
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) consists of the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system. The somatic nervous system controls voluntary movements and transmits sensory information, while the autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary functions like heart rate and digestion.
