Regulation of heart rate, blood pressure, and digestive functions are carried out by the autonomic nervous system

What is autonomic nervous system?

The peripheral nervous system's autonomic nervous system (ANS), originally known as the vegetative nervous system (VNS), provides smooth muscle and glands, which in turn affects how internal organs work. The autonomic nervous system is a control system that regulates body processes like the heart rate, digestion, respiratory rate, pupillary response, and urination mainly subconsciously. The fundamental mechanism in charge of the fight-or-flight response is this system.

Through the brainstem, the spinal cord, and the organs, integrated reflexes control the autonomic nervous system. Control of respiration, cardiac regulation (the cardiac control center), vasomotor activity (the vasomotor center), and other reflex acts including coughing, sneezing, swallowing, and vomiting are all examples of autonomic functions.

Answer: Option B.

Neural crest and peripheral nervous system.

Explanation:

Neural crest are bilateral paired cells of the neural tube that arise from the ectoderm layer of the embryo. Thesescells move to different part of the body and differentiate into various cell types like melanocytes,cartilage and bone, smooth muscle, craniofacial, neurons, gangalia e.t.c. The neural crest running through neural tube develop into peripheral nervous system after birth. Peripheral nervous system consist of neurons and gangalia outside the nervous system The peripheral nervous system connect the central nervous system to organs, skin and limbs.

Develop two criteria that would identify the three muscle tissues in two steps when viewed under a microscope

adelina 88 [10]

Two criteria that would identify the three muscle tissues are myofibers and nuclei.

There are three types of muscles:

1. Skeletal-Contains many nuclei along the length of the muscle cell. The nuclei are displaced peripherally. The skeletal fibers are arranged parallel. The myofibril is composed of bands.

2. Smooth-This tissue contain spindle-shaped cells with a single central nucleus. Smooth muscle fibers are shorter than skeletal.

3. Cardiac-The fibers of cardiac muscle are not simply parallel. Cardiac muscle fibers are long cylindrical cells with one or two nuclei.
