Question
Answer
effectors for Autonomic Nervous system   Smooth muscle, endocrine glands, cardiac muscle  
🗑
dual innervation   having both sympathetic and parasympathetic neurons  
🗑
result of increased sympathetic activity   HR up, digestion down  
🗑
division of NS most active during homeostasis   parasympathetic  
🗑
origin of preganglionic neurons in the SYMPATHETIC NS   Lateral horns of Spinal cord of the thoracolumbar region  
🗑
where a preganglionic neuron synapses with a post ganglionic neuron   ganglion  
🗑
In the sympathetic NS, preganglionic neurons synapse with how many neurons   multiple  
🗑
only one preganglionic neuron directly to this effector   adrenal medulla to release NE  
🗑
Parasympathetic Preganglionic neurons originate   brainstem/sacral regions  
🗑
4 cranial nerves involved in parasympathetic activity   III-occulomotor, VI - facial, VIIII - glossopahrangeal, X - Vagus  
🗑
CN X   Vagus nerve  
🗑
Vagus nerve   80% of parasympathitic activity to organs  
🗑
All preganglionic neurons release...   ACH (Parasymp & Symp)  
🗑
Parasymp post ganglionic neurons release   ACH  
🗑
most sympathetic preganglion neurons release   NE (norepinephrine)  
🗑
Swellings in postganglionic neurons that store and release Neurotransmitters   Varicosities  
🗑
degrades ACH   ACHE  
🗑
structures that regulate Autonomic Nervous system   hypothalamus, pons, medulla, limbics & cortex of the brain  
🗑
Somatic NS regulates   skeletal muscles and their movement  
🗑
motor neuron   nerve that innervates the muscle  
🗑
Chemical messenger released atg Neuromuscular junction   ACH  
🗑
motor end plate   region on skeletal muscle cell that has receptors for ACH  
🗑
pupillary light reflex   autonomic reflex that uses smooth mucles  
🗑
sympathetic trunk   paravertebral  
🗑
parasyhmpathetic ganglions   terminal - where pre & post synapse  
🗑
FSH comes from   anterior pituitary  
🗑
FSH makes   eggs in females - sperm in males  
🗑
Leutinizing hormone from   anterior pituitary  
🗑
LH makes   estrogen/testosterone  
🗑
Dual innervation   both parasym and symp innervation  
🗑
Lateral grey horns of the thoracic spinal chord contain   sympathetic preganglionic neurons  
🗑
All preganglionic neurons release...   ACH  
🗑
Cholinergic neurons release   ACH  
🗑
Sympathetic NS   Fight or flight/Thoracolumbar  
🗑
Parasympathetic   rest and repose/craniosacral  
🗑
Islets of langerhans   found in pancreas - make insulin and glucagon  
🗑
Area of brain with most autonomic control   hypothalmus  
🗑
glucagon   raises blood sugar  
🗑
insulin   lowers blood sugar  
🗑
to release a hormone from the posterior pituitary you need...   a nerve impulse from the hypothalmus  
🗑
posterior pituitary contains   oxytocin & ADH  
🗑
epinephrine effect on HR   raises heart rate  
🗑
ADH   holds water in kidneys  
🗑
cluster of cell bodies in the PNS   ganglion  
🗑
cluster of cell bodies in the cns   neucleii  
🗑
oligiodendryte   makes myelin sheaths in cns  
🗑
schwann cell   makes myelin sheath in pns  
🗑
only part of nerve that is myelinated   axon  
🗑
storage for neurotransmitters   synaptic vessicles  
🗑
gaps on myelin sheaths of axons   nodes of ranvier  
🗑
cavities in brain   ventricles  
🗑
choroid plexus   line ventricles of brain and filter blood into CS fluid  
🗑

primary visual cortex   occipital lobe of brain  
🗑
damage to cribiform plate   can't smell  
🗑
cranial I   olfactory  
🗑
