The Digestive System's muscles are controlled by the Autonomic portion of the brain which also controls breathing , heart beat , temperature control (i.e. sweating or shivering), etc.
The nervous system regulates the speed at which food moves through the digestive system. It also alerts people of when they are hungry.
The enteric nervous system is usually called the intestinal nervous branch of the nervous system. It regulates the digestive system.
The nervous system regulates the speed at which food moves through the digestive system. It also alerts people of when they are hungry.
The digestive system is related to the nervous system in such a way that the nervous system dictates the speed of breaking down of food. The nervous system overseas activity in the digestive tract, and regulates secretion if there are changes.
The vagus nerve (cranial nerve X) slows the heart and increases motility of the digestive tract. It is part of the parasympathetic nervous system which is a branch of the autonomic nervous system.
Smooth muscle tissue, nervous tissue, and connective tissue all play a role in gut motility. Smooth muscle tissue contracts and propels food through the digestive tract, nervous tissue coordinates and regulates muscle contractions, and connective tissue provides support and structure to the gastrointestinal system.
Autonomous nervous system. Consisting of Parasympathetic nervous system and Sympathetic nervous system. Parasympathetic nervous system increases the secretions of digestive tract and Sympathetic system decreases the secretions. Parasympathetic system increases the contractions of smooth muscles and increases the rate and force of peristalsis and Sympathetic system does vise verse.
The Autonomic Nervous System.
The parasympathetic nervous system increases digestive activity. It stimulates processes such as salivation, gastric secretion, and intestinal motility, promoting digestion and absorption of nutrients. This system is often referred to as the "rest and digest" system, as it helps the body conserve energy and focus on digestion during restful states.
Autonomic nervous system
The answer to this one is medulla:))))))))(((((((((
Yes, the digestive system has its own nervous system called the enteric nervous system. This network of neurons controls the function of the gastrointestinal tract independently of the central nervous system. The enteric nervous system helps regulate digestion, absorption of nutrients, and movement of the intestines.
