b. Parasympathetic nervous system
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
The parasympathetic nervous system is part of the autonomic nervous system responsible for 'rest and digest' functions.
It conserves energy by slowing heart rate, increasing digestion, and promoting relaxation.
Parasympathetic responses are mediated by neurotransmitters like acetylcholine.
It primarily acts through cranial and sacral nerves to regulate involuntary processes.
Key organs affected include the heart, lungs, digestive tract, and glands.
