No. The sympathetic nervous system is excitatory. It works via epinephrine and norepinephrine to put the body on a state of alert, vigilance, and action.
The parasympathetic nervous system (controlled mainly by acetylcholine) is relaxing and calming.
The hypothalamus and the sympathetic nervous system are primarily associated with the general adaptation syndrome. The hypothalamus initiates the stress response, while the sympathetic nervous system activates fight-or-flight reactions in response to stress.
The parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for regulating the calming functions of the body, such as resting, digesting, and conserving energy. It works in balance with the sympathetic nervous system, which is associated with the body's fight-or-flight response.
With current technology it is not yet possible to simulate a sympathetic nervous system
The abbreviation for the Central Nervous System = CNS.
No, the adrenal cortex is not an extension of the sympathetic nervous system. The adrenal cortex is the outer region of the adrenal gland that produces hormones like cortisol and aldosterone. The sympathetic nervous system is a part of the autonomic nervous system that controls the body's fight or flight response.
The sympathetic nervous system primarily causes vasoconstriction in the body.
Vasoconstriction is primarily controlled by the sympathetic nervous system.
