What are the two functional classifications of reflexes?
The two functional classifications of reflexes are autonomic reflexes, which regulate activities of smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands, and somatic reflexes, which involve skeletal muscles. Autonomic reflexes are involuntary and controlled by the autonomic nervous system, while somatic reflexes are voluntary and controlled by the somatic nervous system.
Are voluntarily controlled by skeletal or cardiac or smooth?
Voluntary muscles are controlled by the skeletal muscle system, while cardiac and smooth muscles are involuntary and regulated by the autonomic nervous system. Skeletal muscles are under conscious control for movement, posture, and facial expressions, while cardiac muscles control the heart's contractions and smooth muscles regulate internal organ functions.
What body system does not rely on autonomic nervous?
The skeletal system does not rely on the autonomic nervous system. It is primarily controlled by the somatic nervous system, which governs voluntary movements and actions of skeletal muscles. While the autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary functions like heart rate and digestion, the skeletal system operates independently in terms of movement and support.
The autonomic nervous system and the pituitary gland are controlled by the?
The autonomic nervous system is controlled by the brainstem, hypothalamus, and spinal cord. The pituitary gland is controlled by the hypothalamus through the release of specific hormones that regulate pituitary function.
How does the somatic nervous system differ from the autonomic nervous system?
The somatic nervous system controls the voluntary movement of skeletal muscles, such as when you move your arm. The autonomic nervous systems controls the involuntary actions of internal organs and glands. The beating of your heart is controlled by this system. The autonomic nervous system is further broken up into two parts: the sympathetic, which controls arousal (think fight-or-flight), and the parasympathetic, which controls calming (think rest and digest).
What kind of Eye muscles are controlled by the autonomic nervous system?
intrinsic eye muscles are controlled by the autonomic nervous system
What nervous system innervates cardiac and smooth muscles and glands?
They are controlled by the autonomous nervous system.== ==
What nervous center controls the internal organs?
The brain is the part of the peripheral nervous system that controls glandular activity and the muscles of the internal organs.
Is skeletal muscle controlled by the Autonomic Nervous System?
No. Smooth muscle is controlled by the autonomic nervous system (like the intestinal muscles). Two skeletal muscles in the middle ear automatically respond to sound.
What are the intrinsic eye muscles controlled by?
The iris and the ciliary muscle
Autonomic function is controlled by what?
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) contributes to the stability of the internal environment of the body (homeostasis). The autonomic nervous system continuously makes adjustments to our body to maintain equilibrium. The ANS regulates cardiac and smooth muscles and glands. One example of the function of the autonomic nervous system is when our pupils constrict when bright light is shining into our eyes. There are two main branches of the autonomic nervous system, the sympathetic and parasympathetic.
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.
How does the autonomic nervous differ from the somatic nervous system?
The somatic nervous system controls the voluntary movement of skeletal muscles, such as when you move your arm. The autonomic nervous systems controls the involuntary actions of internal organs and glands. The beating of your heart is controlled by this system. The autonomic nervous system is further broken up into two parts: the sympathetic, which controls arousal (think fight-or-flight), and the parasympathetic, which controls calming (think rest and digest).
Why is it so important for the cardiac muscles to be controlled by the autonomic nervous system?
Since continuous blood flow is necessary to keep us alive, if the cardiac muscles were NOT controlled by the autonomic nervous system, we would die as soon as we fell asleep and quit thinking about making the muscle move. Sweet Dreams...
3 kinds of muscles?
The three kinds of muscles are the smooth, cardiac and the skeletal. The smooth muscles are controlled by the autonomic nervous system. The cardiac muscles are in the heart and the skeletal help move our bodies.
Skeletal muscles are voluntary muscles that are under the control of what?
movement of bones--example, when you walk, muscles are pulling your bones so you can take steps.
What are the two functional classifications of reflexes?
The two functional classifications of reflexes are autonomic reflexes, which regulate activities of smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands, and somatic reflexes, which involve skeletal muscles. Autonomic reflexes are involuntary and controlled by the autonomic nervous system, while somatic reflexes are voluntary and controlled by the somatic nervous system.
