Answer: Involuntary.

The Autonomic nervous system is a subdivision of the Peripheral nervous system and it is in charge of the involuntary processes in the body such as blood pressure, respiration and the heart rate. As such, its effectors are under involuntary control.

The Autonomic nervous system controls the smooth and cardiac muscles in the body as well as the glands. This is where it earns its other name, the Visceral nervous system.
