Detailed explanation-1: -Autonomic nervous system (ANS): Controls involuntary bodily functions and regulates glands.

It contains three anatomically distinct divisions: sympathetic, parasympathetic, and enteric.
Detailed explanation-3: -The brain stem sits beneath your cerebrum in front of your cerebellum. It connects the brain to the spinal cord and controls automatic functions such as breathing, digestion, heart rate and blood pressure.
Detailed explanation-4: -The autonomic nervous system controls all “automatic” body functions, such as breathing, heart rate, blood pressure, sweating, mouth-watering (salivating), and the movement of food through the intestines (peristalsis).
