The fastest response from the nervous system is from the autonomic system which is involuntary. Heartbeat and reflex movement come from this system which is out of your conscious control. It is centered in the cerebellum and spinal cord. Impulses from your sense organs (a bad smell or a knock to the knee) travel to your spinal cord or cerebellum -- whichever is closest to the stimulus -- and a response (coughing or knee-jerk) travels back to the area to provoke an appropriate reponse. Some voluntary responses can become involuntary responses, such as riding a bicycle. When learning how to balance, the actions are learned over and over until they become automatic. Some involuntary actions can be controlled voluntarily, such as holding your breath or a yogi who can slow his heartrate.

∙ 13y agoThe amygdala and the thalamus are"hard wired" so to speak. These two regions of our brains are responsible for the fight or flight, does it eat me or do I eat it response. This is why we humans are around today. Evolution took care of the rest i.e. the mid and new brain. These regions of the brain(limbric system) allow you to respond with out needing to think about the immediate situation at hand, which of course, in modern times is not always a good thing.
