Hi Eddy

The gastrointestinal tract is innervated by intrinsic and extrinsic neurons.

The extrinsic nervous system is the nervous system that is external to the bowel and it consists of autonomic, sensory and motor nerves.

The enteric nervous system (ENS) or intrinsic nervous system is one of the main divisions of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and consists of a mesh-like system of neurons that governs the function of the gastrointestinal tract.
