If damage occured in the nervous system, you may not be able to feel anything and you could be actually hurting yourself without knowing it. Damage to the hear muscles could cause cardiac arrest, or the complete stop of the heart, and you could die both ways.

What nervous system controls the skeletal muscle contractions?

The central nervous system supplies the body and muscle contraction. Striated muscle (skeletal muscle) contract voluntary with exception of the heart which is striated involuntary smooth muscle.


What is the division of the peripheral nervous system that communicates with smooth muscle?

Autonomic Nervous System


Which effector is not directly controlled by the autonomic nervous system?

Skeletal muscle is not directly controlled by the autonomic nervous system. Skeletal muscles are under voluntary control, with motor neurons from the somatic nervous system providing the neural input for their activation. Autonomic nervous system controls smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands.


What substance is released by the nervous system and excites muscle cells?

Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter released by the nervous system that excites muscle cells, leading to muscle contraction.

What are the two subdivisions of the motor subdivision of the peripheral nervous system?

The two subdivisions of the motor subdivision are the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system. The somatic nervous system transmits action potentials from the CNS to skeletal muscle, and the autonomic nervous system transmits action potentials from the CNS to smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands.


Is the nervous system divided into three major parts?

The nervous system is divided into two parts: I. Central Nervous System a. Brain b. Spinal Cord II. Peripheral Nervous System a. Somatic Nervous System (voluntary muscle movements) b.
