Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sympathetic branch of the nervous system is responsible for increasing heart rate, AV conduction, and irritability. It is the "fight or flight" response of the body and prepares the body for physical activity or stress. The parasympathetic branch, on the other hand, has the opposite effect and slows down heart rate and conduction. The pacemaker and inherent options are not related to the question.
