Answer:

The two branches of the autonomic (involuntary) nervous system control heart rate. The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) are two types of nervous systems (PNS). To increase heart rate, the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) produces hormones (catecholamines epinephrine and norepinephrine).
