Group of neuronal cell bodies outside the CNS
Ganglia or Ganglion
Group of neuronal cell bodies inside the CNS
Nucleus
Bundle of Axons in PNS
Nerves
Bundle of axons in CNS
Tract
How many pairs of CN
12 pairs (24)
How many pairs of spinal cord

Network of nerves
Plexuses
2 divisions of the autonomic nervous system
Parasympa
Sympa
Parasympathetic nervous system is regulated mainly by
Acetylcholine
Rest and digest
Parasympathetic nervous system
Maintains homeostasis
Parasympathetic nervous system
Synonymous drugs that enhances the Parasympathetic nervous system
Cholinergic
Cholinomimetic
Parasympathomimetic
Anti-sympathetic
Anti-adrenergenic
Sympatholytic
Anti-acetylcholinesterase or Anticholinesterase
Division of the autonomic nervous system regukated mainly by Norepinephrine
Sympathetic nervous system
Fight or flight
Sympathetic nervous system
Sympathetic nervous system is activated by what situations
Stress and emergency situations
Synonymous drugs that enhances the sympathetic nervous system
Adrenergic Adrenomimetic Sympathomimetic Anti-parasympathetic Anti-cholinergic Parasympatholytic
Regulates amount of light
Eye pupil
Eye pupil
Symp:
Parasymp:
Eye pupil
Symp: pupilary dilation (mydriasis)
Parasymp: constriction (miosis)
During parasympathetic = __ fluid secretion
Increase fluid secretion during Parasympathetic
Pupillary dilation
Mydriasis
Pupillary constriction
Miosis
