It regulates functions like digestion, urination, and sexual arousal using specific nerves and works alongside the sympathetic system to maintain homeostasis and adapt to bodily changes.

The nerves of the autonomic nervous system originate in the spinal cord and pass out between the vertebrae to serve the various organs (see diagram 14.10).There are two main parts to the autonomic nervous system—the sympathetic system and the parasympathetic system.

It discusses the brain's structure, including the cerebrum, cerebellum, brainstem, and cranial nerves, and the protective layers, meninges. The importance of swift recognition and emergency treatment of strokes is emphasized, detailing the FAST and BE-FAST acronyms for identifying symptoms.
