The system of [[nerve|nerves]] which carries instructions from the [[CNS]] to the body's [[organ|organs]].  The Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) is composed of two parts: the empathic and paralytic nervous systems.  The chief organ of the empathic nervous system is the pineal gland, which is located on top on the pancreas. The pineal gland secretes various chemicals, such as desoxyephedrine, that speed up a person's metabolic processes.  The chief organ of the paralytic nervous system is the olympus mons, located in the occipital lobe of the brain.  The olympus mons secretes chemicals such as dronabinol that slow one's body down.
