Abstract

This article focuses on the autonomic nervous system of the human body which are nerves involved in the control and coordination of body activities from a part of the peripheral nervous system. The term autonomic literally means self-controlled and independent of outside influences; Emergencies that arise in one's life are handled by the sympathetic nervous system; Like the nerves of the sympathetic nervous system, those of the parasympathetic nervous system are also motor nerves.
