Autonomics Flashcards
somatic nerve basics
1 neuron
Ach to effector neuron
parasympathetic basics
2 neurons
first is longer
Ach at ganglion and effector organ
sympathetic neuron basics
2 neurons - Ach between NE at effector organ
neurons same length
adrenal medulla - 1 short neurone and NE and others to organ
symathetic origin and ganglia
origin: thoracolumbar
ganglia: close to CNS
parasympathetic origin and ganglia
craniosacral
gang: close to effector neuron
autonomic eyes
p: constricts
s: dilates
autonomic tears
p: stim
salivary flow autonomic
p: stim
s: inhib
heart autonomic
p: slows
s: speeds
arterioles autonomic
p: dilate
s: consrict
bronchi autonomic
p: constrict
s: dilate
bladder autonomic
p: consticts
s: relaxes
gut autonomic
p: digestion and mobilitiy
s: inhibits
parasympathetic innervation of the heart
right vagus - SA node
left vagus - AV node
vagal efferents - atrial muscle
NO VENTRICLE
synathetic innervation of the heart
sympathetic efferents - SA, AV, atrium, ventricle
division of the autonomic nervus system
cholinergic: nicotinic and muscarinic (sensitive to Ach)
adrenergic: alpha and beta (sensitive to adrenline - epi and NE)
not the same as sym/para
vagus nerve espieriment
2 hearts: one w vagus nerve stim, one without
both hearts in saline
stimulated vagus nerve for 1 - HR slowed
removed saline from heart 1 nd applied to 2
2 slowed
later proven to be Ach
which neurons are cholinergic?
- all pre-ganglionic neurons
- all parasympathetic post-ganglionic
- sympathetic poast-ganglionic that innervate sweat glands
