Difference between Autonomic nervous system and Homeostasis

Autonomic nervous system vs. Homeostasis

The autonomic nervous system (ANS), formerly the vegetative nervous system, is a division of the peripheral nervous system that supplies smooth muscle and glands, and thus influences the function of internal organs. Homeostasis is the tendency of organisms to auto-regulate and maintain their internal environment in a stable state.

Similarities between Autonomic nervous system and Homeostasis

Autonomic nervous system and Homeostasis have 12 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adrenal medulla, Adrenaline, Brainstem, Hypothalamus, Myocyte, Neuron, Parasympathetic nervous system, Peripheral nervous system, Respiratory rate, Spinal cord, Sympathetic nervous system, Vomiting.

Adrenal medulla

The adrenal medulla (medulla glandulae suprarenalis) is part of the adrenal gland.

Adrenaline

Adrenaline, also known as adrenalin or epinephrine, is a hormone, neurotransmitter, and medication.

Brainstem

The brainstem (or brain stem) is the posterior part of the brain, adjoining and structurally continuous with the spinal cord.

Hypothalamus

The hypothalamus(from Greek ὑπό, "under" and θάλαμος, thalamus) is a portion of the brain that contains a number of small nuclei with a variety of functions.

Myocyte

A myocyte (also known as a muscle cell) is the type of cell found in muscle tissue.

Neuron

A neuron, also known as a neurone (British spelling) and nerve cell, is an electrically excitable cell that receives, processes, and transmits information through electrical and chemical signals.

Parasympathetic nervous system

The parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS) is one of the two divisions of the autonomic nervous system (a division of the peripheral nervous system (PNS)), the other being the sympathetic nervous system.

Peripheral nervous system

The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is one of the two components of the nervous system, the other part is the central nervous system (CNS).

Respiratory rate

The respiratory rate is the rate at which breathing occurs.

Spinal cord

The spinal cord is a long, thin, tubular bundle of nervous tissue and support cells that extends from the medulla oblongata in the brainstem to the lumbar region of the vertebral column.

Sympathetic nervous system

The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) is one of the two main divisions of the autonomic nervous system, the other being the parasympathetic nervous system.

Vomiting

Vomiting, also known as emesis, puking, barfing, throwing up, among other terms, is the involuntary, forceful expulsion of the contents of one's stomach through the mouth and sometimes the nose.

Autonomic nervous system and Homeostasis Comparison

Autonomic nervous system has 93 relations, while Homeostasis has 259. As they have in common 12, the Jaccard index is 3.41% = 12 / (93 + 259).
