The parasympathetic and sympathetic systems are branches of the autonomic nervous system.
Central and Peripheral nervous system.. further divided into sensory, motor and autonomic(sympathetic and parasympathetic)
The peripheral nervous system is divided into motor and sensory systems. The peripheral nervous system is also divided into the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system.
The two divisions of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) are the sympathetic nervous system, which prepares the body for fight or flight responses, and the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes rest and relaxation.
The nervous system is initially divided into the central nervous system (CNS) (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) (pretty much all nerves and related structures that do not reside in the brain or spinal cord). The PNS is then divided into two two divisions known as the somatic division (voluntary) and the autonomic division (involuntary). The autonomic nervous system is then once more divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions.
The autonomic nervous system is divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems.
If I remember correctly, there is of course the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system, further divided into the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous systems.
The division of the autonomic nervous system responsible for each of the reflexes is the ciliospinal reflex. Ciliospinal reflex responds mainly by the 2nd and 3rd order nerves to the muscle of the iris.
The Motor Division is divided into the Somatic and Autonomic Nervous System. The Somatic Nervous System controls voluntary movements of skeletal muscles, while the Autonomic Nervous System regulates involuntary functions like heart rate and digestion.
The autonomic nervous system is divided into two main branches: the sympathetic nervous system, which mobilizes the body for action in response to stress, and the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes relaxation and maintenance of bodily functions at rest.
The nervous system can be divided into two components in several ways. First, you can divide the nervous system into central (brain and spinal cord) and peripheral (the rest of the nerves). Second, you can divide the system into autonomic and voluntary. Third, you can divide the system into sympathetic and parasympathetic.
The Brain and Spinal cord form the Central Nervous System. The Peripheral Nervous System comprises the nerves that ultimately feed into the CNS and is divided into the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Nervous Systems.
