Q

PNS

A

cranial + spinal nerves. detects change in environment + responds via innervation muscles and viscera. 43 nerves. 31 spinal. 12 cranial. Axons supported schwann cells.

Q

SNS/ANS

A
SNS = voluntary and conscious. Skeletal, pain. Detects outside body.
ANS= involuntary para and sym. Detects inside body- viscera. Regulated hypothalamus. Cardiac, smooth muscle + glands. 

Cell body pre- synaptic = cns
Cell body post = near target organ

1 coccygeal
Mixed nerves. Motor neurons (multipolar) cell bodies CNS ventral.
Sensory neurons (pseudo) DRG
19
Q

Poorly localized pain- nausea

A

Visceral afferent of sympathetic system

20
Q

Where do presynpatic sympathetic nerves arise from

A

Lateral horn of spinal chord grey matter T1-L2

21
Q

Where are post synaptic ganglia located on the sympathetic division.

A

Paravertebral ganglia - sympathetic chain

Prevertebral - close to target organ

22
Q

Sympathetic division controls

A
Fight or flight
Vaso constriction
Sweat glands ( rest glandular is para)
23

A

walls target organ
