Autonomic nervous system & ganglia L7 Flashcards
what is the origin of sympathetic nervous system?
left horn cells of T1 to L3 (thoracolumber)
what is the origin of the parasympathetic nervous system?
cranial part: X, IX, VII & III (1973)
sacral part: 2, 3, 4
N. their fibers unite to form pelvic nerve
Define ANC
part of the nervous system r responsible to regulation of involuntary or visceral(الاحشاء) functions in the body.
what are the characteristics of sympathetic nervous system?
- fight and flight
- catabolic to energy
- delay fatigue
- increase energy use
- mass stimulation is useful
What are the characteristics of parasympathetic nervous system?
- rest and digest
- anabolic to energy
- saves energy
- mass stimulation is fatal
- repair and recovery of constracting muscles.
what are the characters of bregan galionic neuronneuron
- origin: CNS
- end: ganglia
- type: thin myelinated (type B)
- colour: white
- No: few
- chemical transmitter: acetylcholine
what are the characteristics of the postganglionic neuron?
- origin: outside cns
- end: effectors
- type: non-myelinated (type c)
- colour: gray
- no: more
- chemical transmitter: Acetylcholine & noradrenaline
cell bodies of the postganglionic neuron forms ……
ganglia
Define autonomic Ganglia?
collection of cell bodies outside cns
mention the functions of ganglia:
- relay stations for autonomic preganglionic neuron.
- distribution center.
in the sympathetic NC the ratio preg : postg is ….
1:32
What is the nature of the actions of the sympathetic nervous system?
- widespread distribution
- generalized
in the parasympathetic NS the ratio between preg : postg is …..
1:2
What is the nature of the actions of the parasympathetic nervous system?
localized
mention the types of ganglia and their sites:
- paravertebral (lateral) → sides of the spinal cord
- prevertebral (collateral) → close to the aorta and its branches
- terminal ganglia → close to the effector
*lateral ganglia is called olso sympathetic chain.
branches of the aorta are: celiac, *superior mesenteric & inferior mesenteric.
what are the types of ganglia which act as relay station for the sympathetic preganglionic nerve fibers?
lateral & colateral ganglia
type of ganglia which act as relay station for parasympathetic preganglionic fibers?
terminal ganglia
type of ganglia which is characterized by short postganglionic neurons ……
terminal ganglia
type of ganglia which is presnt mainly in the abdomen …….
colateral (prevertebra)
