one of the divisions of the autonomic nervous system, based between the brain and the spinal cord, that slows the heart and relaxes muscles.
Connects the Central Nervous System to the rest of the body; such as organs, skin, and limbs.
Involuntary stimuli is sent to the cardiac muscle of the heart and smooth muscle in the linings of organs
Connects the brain and spinal cord to muscles to stimulate movement.
Cells that support neurons.
Controls muscle movement and relays information from ears, eyes and skin to the central nervous system.
