are postrema
state in which energy intake exceeds energy expenditure

only digestive secretion controlled by neural factors
salivary secretion
cause large quantity of watery secretion rich in electrolytes and enzymes
parasympathetic nerves
cause a release of mucus in the saliva
sympathetic nerves
parasympathetic n. innervating all 3 glands of oral cavity
CN IX (glossopharyngeal)
2 main parasympathetic nerves producing saliva secretion
CN VII and CN IX
