Autonomic Nervous System Part 1 - Episode 26

Episode 26 begins our discussion of the autonomic nervous system, our fight-or-flight and rest-and-digest control. The autonomic nervous system mediates the visceral reflexes that control heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, and a plethora of physiological processes. You’ll also get to hear my conversation with Dr. Michael Windelspecht, author of the Mader’s Biology series of textbooks from McGraw-Hill Education and one of the owners of Inspire Edventures. Inspire Edventures takes students to the Central American country of Belize where they embark on educational excursions actively learning ecology and biology in the field.
