Q

Sympathetic innervates vessels of

A

smooth muscle blood vessels

21
Q

sympathetic preganglionic fibers length

22
Q

sympathetic postganglionic fibers

23
Q

since sympathetic preganglionic are short they are

A

closer to CNS

24
Q

1 sympathetic preganglionic can synapse with

A

32 ganglionic neurons

25
Q

sympathetic chain ganglia are found

A

lateral vertebral column

26
Q

route of sympathetic preganglionic fibers

A

exit cord through ventral root
into spinal nerve
pass into white ramus communicans
enter sympathetic chain ganglion

27
Q

1 option for preganglionic fibers in sympathetic chain

A

synapse with post ganglionic neuron in same chain ganglion

28
Q

2 option for preganglionic fibers in sympathetic chain

A

ascend/descend sympathetic chain to synapse in diff chain ganglion

29
Q

3 option for preganglionic fibers in sympathetic chain

A

pass through chain ganglion to synapse in collateral ganglion

30
Q

postganglionic fibers for sympathetic chain ganglia enter

A

dorsal or ventral ramus of spinal nerves via gray ramus communicans

31
Q

sympathetic postganglionic fibers exit

A

via sympathetic nerves

32
Q

ANS collateral ganglia are located

A

anterior to the vertebral column

33
Q

collateral ganglia are destination for fibers

A

inferior to T4

34
Q

splanchnic nerves

A

nerve running sympathetic chain going out to collateral ganglia

35
Q

preganglionic fibers pass through sympathetic chain and

A

celiac ganglion to synapse with chromaffin cells

36
Q

preganglionic fibers pass through sympathetic chain and celial ganglion to synapses directly with chromaffin cells in the

A

adrenal medulla

37
Q

chromaffin cells are modified

A

post ganglionic neurons

38
Q

chromaffin cells release

A

epinephrine and norepinephrine

39

Parasympathetic division arrises from

A

cranial nerves III
VII
IX
X

40
Q

parasympathetic 90% preganglionic fibers

A

vagus nerve

41
Q

parasympathetic division preganglionic fibers synapse with

A

post ganglionic neurons in terminal or intramural ganglia

42
Q

parasympathetic division preganglionic fibers

43
Q

parasympatetic division post ganglionic fibers

44
Q

parasympathetic division less divergence means

A

more specific response

45
Q

parasympathetic division ganglia are

A

closer to their target (terminal)

46
Q

organs parasympathetic division organs innervate

A

eye, salivary, glands, sweat glands

47
Q

parasympathetic division does not innervate

A

blood vessels

48
Q

most organs of the body are innervated by

A

both divisons of ANS
