Question: The parasympathetic nervous division is central to maintaining homeostasis (i.e., balance) of the body. Pick one of the oxygen delivery organs and one of the excretory / digestive organs. For these two organs you have chosen, describe completely how the parasympathetic division regulates their actions to maintain balance in the body. Last, integrate the regulation of these two systems by describing how changes in one (e.g., blood flow) might affect the function of the other (e.g., digestive rate).
