Solution

Parasympathetic nervous system:

  1. The parasympathetic nervous system is also a part of the autonomic nervous system. But unlike the sympathetic, the parasympathetic nervous system returns the body to its original resting state.
  2. It re-establishes the body's normal condition after a stressful situation by causing the heartbeat to slow down, lowering the blood pressure, lowering the breathing rate, constricting the pupil, etc.
