Expert Solution

Step 1: Introduction

The nervous system is divided into central nervous system (CNS: brain and spinal cord) and peripheral nervous system (PNS).

PNS can be further divided into somatic nervous
system and autonomic nervous system (ANS).

The ANS has two divisions – sympathetic and parasympathetic. The "sympathetic division"
arises from thoracolumbar region (T1–L3, thoracolumbar outflow) and the "parasympathetic
division" arises from two separate regions in the CNS. The cranial outflow arises from cranial
nerves (III, VII, IX and X) and sacral outflow from S2, S3 and S4 spinal
