Which part of the nervous system inhibits the secretion of insulin? A. sympathetic nervous system B. somatic nervous system C. enteric nervous system D. parasympathetic nervous system

A. sympathetic nervous system

Both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems innervate the heart's ventricular muscle fibers. A. True B. False
