Q

what organs only have sympathetic innervation

A

sweat glands, arrector pili muscles of hair, vascular smooth muscle, adrenal gland and adipose tissue

(only fight or flight response)

20
Q

ANS and erectile tissue

A

parasympathetic: will cause vasodilation in erectile tissue
sympathetic: will cause ejaculation

21
Q

parasympathtic is also called the ___ divison

A

cranial, sacral division (cell bodies are in the cervical or sacral spinal cord and travel down or up to get to the abdomen)

vagosympathetic trunk → through the middle cervical ganglion → vagus from the top

from the bottom: pelvic nerve to pelvic plexus up through the hypogastric nerve

22
Q

sympathetic is called the ___ division

A

thoracic lumbar

come from vagosympathetic trunk divides at the middle cervical ganglion into the ansa subclavia into the cervicothoracic ganglion down the sympathetic trunk, over through the splanchnic nerves into the celiac ganglion and cranial mesenteric ganglion in the celiacomesenteric plexus

or over into the caudal mesenteric plexus and ganglion down through the hypogastric nerve to the pelvic plexus

23
Q

sympathetic ganglion are found ___ and ___

A

T1-L4

outside away from target organ (middle cervical ganglion, cerviothoracic ganglion, celiac ganglion and cranial mesenteric ganglion (in the celiacomesenteric plexus), caudal mesenteric ganglion (in the caudal mesenteric ganglion), pelvic ganglion in the pelvic plexus

24
Q

parasympathetic ganglion are found ___

A

in the spinal cord CN 3,7,9, 10 and the sacral spinal

second ganglion usually right next to target organ (usually can’t be seen)

vagus nerve, pelvic nerve, hypogastric nerve

25
Q

sensory neurons in the ANS have ___ neuron to reach the CNS

A

one

(visceral afferent= from organ to brain= sensory)

26
Q

the preganglionic axon in the ANS reacts ___, the postganglionic axon is ___ and is ___ moving

A

slowly,

un myelinated

very slow moving

(visceral efferent =visceral motor = from brain to intestines)

27
Q

craniosacral division is also called the

A

parasympathethic (rest and digest)

28
Q

Thoracolumbar division is also called the ___

A

sympathetic (fight or flight)

29
Q

the sympathetic division has ___ ganglion and ___ ganglion

A

paravertebral ganglion on the sympathtic trunk

prevertebral ganglion (celiac ganglion, cranial and caudal mesenteric ganglion, pelvic ganglion)

30
Q

parasympathetic division has ___ and ___ ganglion

A

head

terminal (enteric) ganglion on or right next to target organ

31
Q

Most of the nerves in the parasympathetic division are ____ because the second ganglion is on or right next to target organ

A

preganglionic

(post ganglionic axon-very tiny usually within target organ wall)

32
Q

The celiac plexus has parasympathetic branches that innervate the ___

A

stomach spleen liver

33
Q

the cranial mesenteric plexus have parasympathetic nerves that innervate the ___

A

all other intestinal stuff except for

stomach, spleen and liver (supplied by the celiac plexus)

distal colon (supplied by the pelvic plexus)

34
Q

the sympathetic chain is linked to thoracic and lumbar spinal nerves via the ___ which have within them both pre and post ganglionic sympathetic axons.

A

communicating rami

35
Q

the ramus commincans branches off of ___ to lead to the ___ and contains

A

ventral ramus

sympathetic trunk

mixed nerve (both sensory and motor axons)

36
Q

there are two branches off the spinal cord which one has a ganglion and what type of nerves does it carry

A

dorsal and ventral

dorsal root ganglion (sensory only)

Ventral root (motor only)

37
Q

when will somatic motor nerves “turn around”

A

VE axons (visceral efferent- part of the sympathetic NS (fight or flight))

will come out of ventral root, down communicating ramus, synapse on the paravertebral ganglion turn around and then come out later to innervate skin (blood vessels, sweat glands, arrector pili muscle)

38
Q

splanchnic nerve pre or post ganglionic?

A

pre (will synapse at a preverteral ganglion (away from spinal cord))

splanchnic= sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight)

39
Q

where will splanchnic nerves synapse?

A

cervicothoracic ganglion

celiac ganglion

cranial and caudal ganglion

pelvic ganglion

40
Q

somatic afferent are ___

A

41
Q

visceral afferent are

A

sensory from the organs to the brain

will travel through the dorsal root ganglion, dorsal root and into the spinal cord

42

A

neuroepinephrine

43
Q

parasympathetic disivision orginated from the cranial nerves ___ and the ___

Q

true or false the adrenal gland only receives parasympathetic innervation from the ANS

A

false

sympathetic only: fight or flight only
