Massage can result in circulatory changes to the involuntary reflex responses of the?
autonomic nervous system
Are all of your nervous system responses are voluntary or under your control?
No. Some are involuntary. For example, the beating of the heart. The nervous system's effect can be seen as an EKG.
What part of the nervous system coordinates incoming information from the senses and sends instructions to the muscles and glands?
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.
Is a heartbeat a reflex?
No, a heartbeat is not a reflex. It is a coordinated and involuntary contraction of the heart muscle controlled by the heart's own electrical system, known as the cardiac conduction system. Reflexes are typically involuntary responses to stimuli mediated by the nervous system.
What is the control center of the nervous system?
The brain.
What is true regarding voluntary and involuntary response?
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.
What is the function of the autonamic nervous system?
Subdivision of the peripheral nervous system that regulates involuntary functions.
What does the efferent division of the PNS do?
The efferent division of the PNS carries signals from the central nervous system to the muscles and glands to control responses. It consists of the somatic nervous system, which controls voluntary movements, and the autonomic nervous system, which regulates involuntary functions such as heart rate and digestion.
What portion of the nervous system that carries involuntary activities?
autonomic nervous system.
What is the nervous system branch that regulates involuntary functions?
The Autonomic Nervous System.
The portion of the nervous system that is considered involuntary?
autonomic nervous system
What parts of the nervous system are involved in involuntary actions?
automatic nervous system
