Enteric Nervous SystemThe enteric nervous system is an interdependent part of the autonomic nervous system. Despite its many interactions with other parts of the ANS, it can be regarded as a nerval body of its own. Its functioning is still subject to research in neurogastroenterology. It has as many as 1 bilion neurons, one tenth of the number of neurons in the brain. *
