Peripheral And Automatic Flashcards
Sensory (afferent)
Signals picked up by sensory receptors carried by nerve fibers of PNS to CNS
Motor (efferent)
Signals carried away from the CNS innervate muscles and glands
PNS afferent divison
Afferent sensory divison- transmits impulses from receptors to the CNS
Somatic afferent fibers
Visceral afferent fiber
Somatic afferent fibers
Carry impulses from skin skeletal muscles and joints
Visceral afferent fibers
Transmit impulses from visceral organs
PNS efferent division
Motor efferent divison- transmits impulses from the CNS to effector organs
Somatic nervous system
Automatic nervous system
Somatic nervous system
Provides conscious control of skeletal muscles
Automatic nervous system
Regulates smooth muscle cardiac muscle and glands
Sensory
Touch pain vibration pressure temperature
Detect stretch in tendons and muscles body position orientation
Hearing balance vision smell taste
Motor
Signals contraction of skeletal muscles
Contraction of smooth and cardiac muscles parasympathetic and sympathetic
Sympathetic
Catabolic
Mass activation
Heart rate increases
Bronchioles dilated
Blood (glucose) increases
Parasympathetic
Fred and breed rest and digest
Maintain homeostasis
Decreases heart rate
Dilates visceral blood vessels
Increases digestive activity
Sympathetic divison organization
Preganglionic neurons jn segments T1 to L2
Ganglia near the vertebral column
Sympathetic ganglia paired with sympathetic chain ganglia
Unpaired with collateral ganglia
Preganglionic fibers to adrena medullae
