Detailed explanation-1: -The sympathetic nervous system releases norepinephrine (NE) while the parasympathetic nervous system releases acetylcholine (ACh). Sympathetic stimulation increases heart rate and myocardial contractility.
Detailed explanation-2: -The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system prepares the body for physical activity by increasing heart rate, blood pressure and respiration. The sympathetic division also stimulates the release of glucose from the liver for energy.
Detailed explanation-3: -This can include control of your heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, urination and sweating, among other functions. The parasympathetic part of your autonomic nervous system balances your sympathetic nervous system.
