Q

1) Sympathetic NS origins from which spinal segments exactly?
2) what about ParaSympathetic NS? [2]

A

1) Sympathetic Preganglionic Neurons are in T1-L2 [IML lateral horns] of spinal cord gray matter
2) ParaSYmpathetic Preganglionic Neurons start from Cranial nerves (3,7,9,10) OR Spinal segments S2 –> S4

Q

1) Preganglionic fibers from SYMPATHETIC NS leave spinal cord thru the ____ rami (____) and then housed in the ___ _____, enter the ____ _____
2) Where are Ganglionic neurons located for each system? [2]
3) What is the passage for SYMPATHETIC POSTganglionic fibers
4) SYMPATHETIC Preganglionic fibers are ____& ______ hile
5) What does WIGO mean?

A

2) Ganglionic neurons =
ºWITHIN [SCGT] OR collateral ganglion outside [SCGT] = SYMPATHETIC /////
ºPeripheral ganglia=PARAsympathetic
————————————————————————————
3) POSTganglionic fibers leave sympathetic trunk thru GRAY RAMI (as Gray communicating ramus) & pass thru spinal nerve again b4 actually terminating in organ
———————————————————————————–
4) SYMPATHETIC Preganglionic fibers are SHORT & myelinated

5) WIGO = White in (PreG in to SCGT) and Gray Out (PostG out of SCGT)

Q

1) Which ganglia does the PREganglionc neurons of the PARAsympathetic NS synapse with? How does this effect the length of these fibers?
2) Are these fibers myelinated or nah?
3) Which 3 Ganglion does VAGUS CN10 travel to?

A

1) Peripheral ganglia located NEAR target organ [WHich is Why these PREganglionc PARAsympathetic fibers are so long]
2) PreGanglionic for BOTH systems are Myelinated
3) Thoracic, Abdominal & Cardiac ganglia

Q

B: Why should you find NO white rami below L2?

A

—SYMPATHETIC NS

B: Sympathetic input from spinal cord stops at L2 = no white rami below that—> only chain and gray rami

Q

What are the Splanchnic Nerves? [3]

A

STRANGE Group of Nerves found in Thoracic [T5-T10], Sacral and Pelvic regions.

  1. Thoracic Splanchnic= Sympathetic NS BUT have PARASympathetic qualities (don’t synapse at SCGT & have LONG PREganglionic n.)

º[Sacral Splanchnics also=Sympathetic]

  1. Pelvic Splanchnic= PARASympathetic NS

Q

1: Which “road map guidance” does the Sympathetic fibers use to get to their targets?
2: What is the ganglion impar?

A

1: Sympathetic fibers follow Blood Vessels & peripheral nerves to their targets
2: Gang impar= The only randomly detached unpaired ganglion

Q

1) Where is the Celiac Ganglion located in the body? [3]

2) Is this ganglion Sympathetic or PARAsympathetic?

A

1) INSIDE DIAPHRAGM, In front of T12 Vertebrae & under the heart
2) MOSTLY SYMPATHETIC (from grtr and lesser splanchnic n.)

Q

A: Because there is no ___ ____ in the cervical cord, how do SYMPATHETIC preganglionic fibers get to the face?

B: What functions do they do in the face? [3]

A

A: Since no LATERAL HORN (IML) in cervical cord sympathetic preganglionics ascend from thoracic cord to synapse in Superior/Middle/Inferior cervical chain ganglia

B: Dilator Pupillae, Eyelid Tarsal muscle, Facial sweating

Tarsal HELPS [levator palpebrae superioris] elevate eyelid

Q

1) Which nerve is responsible for relaying Lacrimal Gland SENSATION? Give an example
2) What n. induces TEARS for Lacrimal Gland? What does this nerve run with to get there?

A

1) [Trigeminal/CN5B1^Opthalmic»Lacrimal n.] Relays SENSATION for Lacrimal Gland (ex. being stabbed in eye with hot comb)
2) TEARS= Facial CN7^Greatr Petrosal n. which runs with CN5 Zygomatic Branch

Q

Sphincter Pupillae [function:____] is related to the ____[Afferent/EFFerent] Limb of the Pupillary Light Reflex and is innervated CN__ via the ____ ganglion.

*What muscle does the Accommodation/focusing of the eye and what CN is it innervated by?

A

Sphincter Pupillae [function: CONSTRICTION] is related to EFFERENT Limb of the Pupillary Light Reflex and innervated by CN3^Occulomotor via Ciliary Ganglion.
