Sympathetic nervous system | Autonomic nervous system | Nervous system - pharmacology This video is all about the sympathetic nervous system. the sympathetic nervous system along with the parasympathetic nervous system is divisions of the autonomic nervous system. the autonomic nervous system and somatic nervous system mutually are called the peripheral nervous system. and this peripheral nervous system is the division of our nervous system along with the central nervous system. the sympathetic nervous system prepares us for energy expending, stressful and emergency situations as well as prepares us for doing exercise. the sympathetic division is also known as "the fight or flight response" and "thoracolumbar division" the sympathetic nervous system innervates many organs of our body like eyes, salivary glands, heart, lungs, spleen, stomach, small and large intestines, kidneys, adrenal gland, urinary bladder, and reproductive organs. the sympathetic may activate or inhibit the functions of the organs depending upon the organ and the receptors on that organ.
