A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Also known as the visceral or involuntary nervous system, the ANS functions without conscious, voluntary control. Because it innervates cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and various endocrine and exocrine glands, this nervous system influences the activity of most tissues and organ systems in the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Although most of the autonomic nervous system responses are involuntary, they can integrate with the somatic nervous system, which is responsible for the voluntary movements. For example, in the case of defecation, there is an interplay between voluntary and involuntary movements.

Detailed explanation-3: -The part of your brain that runs autonomic functions is your hypothalamus.

Detailed explanation-4: -The central nervous system (CNS) consists of the brain and spinal cord. The CNS controls the voluntary actions of the body, as well as some involuntary actions, such as reflexes.
