Q

Somatic Nervous System

A
  • Sensory Input: Special senses and somatic senses
  • One neuron pathway: Single neuron from CNS synapse directly effector ograns: skeletal muscle in PNS to release Ach –> stimulatory effect

Q

Automatic Nervous system: Sympathetic

A
  • “Fight or Flight” – mobilizes body for action
    1. preganglionic neurons from CNS synapse with postganglionic fibers in an autonomic ganglion in PNS to release Ach
    2. Unmyleinated postganglionic axon from ganglia releases norepinephrine to effector organs: Smooth muscle, glands, cardiac muscle and increased or decreased muscle contraction
  • Stimulatory or inhibitory, depending on neurotransmitter and receptors on effector organs

Q

Automatic Nervous system: Parasympathetic

A
  • “Rest, Repose, Digest” – conserves energy
    1. preganglionic neurons from CNS synapse with postganglionic fibers in an autonomic ganglion in PNS to release ACh
    2. Unmyleinated postganglionic axon from ganglia releases ACh to effector organs: Smooth muscle, glands, cardiac muscle and increased or decreased muscle contraction
  • Stimulatory or inhibitory, depending on neurotransmitter and receptors on effector organs

Q

Parasympathetic Division

A
  1. Axons emerge from CNS at level of cranial nerve and sacral spinal nerves
  2. Ganglion is near or within the effector
  3. Preganglion axon is long, postganglion axon is short

Q

Sacral Level

Parasympathetic Division

A
  • Cell bodies in lateral horns of sacral spinal cord
  • Axons through ventral root and into ventral rami to urinary (not kidney), reproductive, and some digestive organs
18
Q

Sympathetic division

A
  1. Preganglion neuron cell bodies are in the lateral horns of the spinal cord
  2. Axons emerge from the thoracic and lumbar regions of the spinal cord
  3. Axons of preganglion neurons pass through ventral root and into white rami communicantes and enter the sympathetic trunk ganglion (usually 23 pairs)
19
Q

The three optional paths of sympathetic division

Once in the sympathetic chain ganglion, there are 3 optional paths

A
  1. synapse at the same level
  2. synapse at a higher or lower level
  3. synapse in a distal collateral ganglion anterior to the vertebral column
