autonomic nervous system
No. Some are involuntary. For example, the beating of the heart. The nervous system's effect can be seen as an EKG.
The central nervous system, which consists of the brain and spinal cord, coordinates incoming sensory information and sends instructions to muscles and glands. This information processing allows for both voluntary and involuntary responses to stimuli.
The brainstem, particularly the medulla oblongata, is responsible for controlling involuntary actions such as breathing, heart rate, and digestion. This area regulates essential bodily functions that occur automatically without conscious effort or control.

Voluntary responses are under conscious control, while involuntary responses occur without conscious control. Voluntary responses typically involve skeletal muscles, while involuntary responses involve smooth muscles, cardiac muscles, or glandular secretions controlled by the autonomic nervous system.
