At dinner, when John picks up his fork, his ______ nervous system controls the movement of his fingers. His ________ nervous system regulates his stomach and controls the digestion of food.

Respuesta :

Answer: Somatic, autonomic

Explanation:

Somatic nervous system controls the voluntary movements of the body like the movement of the body muscles.

Autonomic nervous system is responsible for controlling the involuntary functions of the body like blood flow, heartbeat, digestion, and breathing.

The somatic nervous system controls the movement of the fingers and will help John to pick up the fork whereas his autonomic nervous system will regulate the digestion of food in the stomach. Here digestion is an involuntary action.
