The sympathetic nervous system makes up part of the autonomic nervous system, also known as the involuntary nervous system.
The sympathetic nervous system directs the body's rapid involuntary response to dangerous or stressful situations. A flash flood of hormones boosts the body's alertness and heart rate, sending extra blood to the muscles. Breathing quickens, delivering fresh oxygen to the brain, and an infusion of glucose is shot into the bloodstream for a quick energy boost. This response occurs so quickly that people often don't realize it's taken place.

Explanation:
THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM How does the endocrine orchestra work? 1- Nervous Stimuli to the Hypothalamus production of releasing (stimulatory) or inhibitory hormones, transported via a portal system of vessels to the anterior pituitary gland 2- Anterior Pituitary Gland pituitary trophic hormones 3- Pituitary trophic hormones stimulate Peripheral Endocrine Glands production of peripheral hormones 4- Hormone/Receptor Interactions in target organs hormone actions 5- Peripheral hormones exert Negative Feedback Mechanisms supression of hypothalamic & pituitary hormones.
