parasympathetic

Explanation:

The parasympathetic nervous system is the part of the autonomic division and is responsible for rest and digest response during rest and recovery time. The parasympathetic nervous system serves to restore and conserve energy. The parasympathetic division is also called housekeeper division since it promotes all the internal responses associated with a relaxed body state. It causes the contraction of the pupil of the eye, promotes digestion and absorption of food, and slows down the heartbeat and other body functions that support the physical activity.
