Nervous system Flashcards
what is CNS and PNS segmented into
sensory (afferent) division and motor (efferent division)
what is sensory division split into
somatic sensory (pressure, touch, pain, hearing, vision)
visceral sensory (stretch, pain, temp etc)
what is efferent motor division split into
visceral motor- autonomic nervous system somatic motor (voluntary, to skeletal muscle- no ganglia)
what is autonomic division split into
Sympathetic, parasympathetic and enteric

what does the dorsal ramus give nerves to
expaxial muscles- epimere
what does ventral ramus give nerves to
hypaxial muscles, limbs and bodywall (hypomere)
what nerves does dorsal horn give off
dorsal sensory root (into dorsal root ganglion) (can travel in either ramus
what does ventral horn give off
ventral motor root
can travel in either ramus
