The organs and tissues of the thorax, the abdomen and the pelvic come under the dual influence of the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions of the autonomic nervous system. The two systems work together to ensure a constant state of activity of the human body. Autonomic innervation of the muscles of the salivary glands, the eye, the sweat glands and the skin muscles is also governed by the autonomic nervous system.
