Summary Introduction

To determine:

The exhibition of cooperative effects of the parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions on the reproductive system of males.

Concept introduction:

Multiple organs are innervated by both the divisions of the ANS (autonomic nervous system); parasympathetic as well as sympathetic. There are various effectors that possess dual innervation. It means that the effectors are innervated by axons (postganglionic) from both the sympathetic as well as the parasympathetic divisions.

Students have asked these similar questions
What changes take place in females during sexual arousal as the result of increased parasympathetic stimulation?
Sexual arousal results in a generally positive sympathetic response, e.g. increased heart rate, increased breathing rate and depth, etc. How is it, then, that erection can occur if sympathetic activity causes vasoconstriction and prevents blood flow into the vascular spaces of the penis?
What is the effect of oestrogens on the hypothalamus?
