People are often able to live in a coma for several years because parts of the body that are not under conscious control continue to function. This situation best reflects the importance of the

A) central nervous system

B) autonomic nervous system

C) somatic nervous system

D) forebrain

Answer:

B) autonomic nervous system

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system is a part of the peripheral nervous system. It comes under the motor division of the peripheral nervous system. The function of this division of the nervous system is to deliver the motor information from the central nervous system to the smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands.  The responses produced by these muscles and glands are not controlled by the will or conscious of the individuals.  

Due to the functioning of the autonomic nervous system, the person under the coma could perform the activities such as breathing, pumping of heart to deliver the oxygen to the body cells, etc. and stay live.

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.
V125BC [204]

The nervous system and the muscle system respond to stimuli to produce motion. The skeletal movements of muscles are mostly voluntary.

Involuntary movements occur in these muscles when the nerve impulse passes from a sensory neuron to a motor neuron via an interneuron in the spinal cord.

<h3>What are Skeletal muscles?</h3>

Skeletal muscles may be defined as the muscles that fasten to your bones and authorize you to achieve a broad range of activities and operations.

Skeletal muscles control the direct movement of a person's will and are hence referred to as voluntary movement. While the spinal cord is associated with both movements directly or indirectly. It is a prolonged, delicate tubelike network liable for holding incoming and outgoing messages through the brain to the rest body.

Therefore, it is well described above.
