The parasympathetic nervous system is most likely to be dominant while someone is napping after a big meal?

Digestion is most stimulated when the body is relaxed or at rest. Digestion is a parasympathetic nervous system process which is dominant when the body is relaxed. Blood flow is favored during this time in which absorption of the nutrients is enhanced.
