Solution
When a parasympathetic nerve supply to the heart is disturbed, the heart rate will
a) decrease
b) increase
c) heart stops
d) heart beats without nervous control
Correct answer: (d) heart beats without nervous control
- The autonomic nervous system (ANS) controls the involuntary actions of the internal organs.
- There are two parts of the ANS- sympathetic and parasympathetic.
- Sympathetic system prepares the body for emergency situations while parasympathetic system re-establishes normal conditions after the extreme act is over.
Correct answer:
- For example, sympathetic nervous system increases while the parasympathetic nervous system decreases the heartbeat. Without input from either source, the heart will continue to beat at approximately 70-80 beats per minute.
