The somatic nervous system controls voluntary muscles and innervates the external urethral sphincter, allowing for voluntary control over urination. The parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for rest and digest functions and innervates the detrusor muscle, promoting bladder contraction for urination. The sympathetic nervous system, involved in the body's fight or flight responses, innervates the internal urethral sphincter, helping to retain urine in the bladder by keeping the sphincter closed.
