Q

Thoracolumbar Division (T1 through L3 or L4)B. Preganglionic axons exit through a white ramus into one of the ganglia of the sympathetic chain. Fibers will then either 1.Synapse with postganglionic neurons at that ganglia 2.Pass up or down the sympathetic chain, then synapse with a different ganglia 3.Pass through the chain and out a sympathetic nerve (Splanchnic) where it will synapse in a peripheral sympathetic ganglion (celiac, superior mesenteric, or inferior mesenteric) 4.EXCEPTION: Adrenal Medulla
