Question

after eating a large meal, lisa felt sleepy. which nervous system dominates and is often called the rest and digest division of the autonomic nervous system (ans)?
somatic nervous system
parasympathetic nervous system
sympathetic nervous system
systemic nervous system

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for the "rest and digest" functions. After a meal, it dominates to aid digestion and relaxation, which can cause sleepiness. The somatic nervous system controls voluntary movements. The sympathetic nervous system is for "fight - or - flight" responses. The systemic nervous system is not a standard term in this context.

Answer:

Parasympathetic nervous system
