Q

parasympathetic innervates from where (2 places)

A

brainstem
S2-S4

24
Q

parasympathetic innervates:

A

pupil
heart
bronchial tree
gut tube
genitals
bladder

25
Q

what nervous system is the top, middle, bottom?

A
26
Q

parasympathetic nerve origins

A

brainstem (CN III, VII, IX, X)
S2-S4 (hindgut)

27
Q

what NS innervates the pupil, heart, bronchial tree, gut tube, genitals, and bladder?

A

parasympathetic NS

28
Q

why do some areas (C, L, S) have more gray matter than the thoracic region?

A

there is more white matter (myelinated) towards the brains for fast transfer of information

sacral region doesn’t have a high need for fast transfer of information so it has less white matter

29
Q

what NS controls smooth muscle of blood vessels?

A

sympathetic NS

30
Q

what NS controls smooth muscles of GI tract and glands?

A

parasympathetic NS

31
Q

what is #1?

A

cell body of preganglionic neuron

32
Q

neuron path trace

A
33
Q

what is #2?

A

cell body of the postganglionic neuron

34
Q

where is sympathetic of #1?
where is sympathetic of #2?
where is parasympathetic of #1?
where is parasympathetic of #2?

A

sympathetic of #1: spinal cord or T1-L2
sympathetic of #2: sympathetic chain or preaortic ganglion

parasympathetic of #1: brainstem or S2-S4
parasympathetic of #2: intramural ganglia (within the body)

35
Q

what is blue, yellow, red, andorange?

A

blue: neural tube
yellow neural crest
red: somites
orange: notochord

36
Q

neural crest cells become all the ______ ______

A

neural crest cells become all the peripheral nerve ganglia

37
Q

neural crest cell migration to what three areas?

A

inside the viscera (intramural ganglia- within organs)

38
Q

where is the paravertebral ganglia (sympathetic chain)?

A
39
Q

where is the preaortic ganglia (prevertebral ganglia)?

A
40
Q

where is the intramural ganglia?

A
