Question
Answer
The ANS controls the function of what?   show
🗑
True or False, the ANS makes an organ function?   show
🗑
show Excitable tissues effected by the nervous system  
🗑
show It effects the rate of contraction  
🗑
In smooth muscle, which type is connected by gap junctions and act as a unit?   show
🗑
show Secretion is controlled by the ANS  
🗑
show Skeletal Muscle versus the ANS neuroeffector tissues are smooth muscle, cardiac muscle and glands  
🗑
What are the two subdivisions of the ANS?   show
🗑
show The sympathetic nervous system  
🗑
show lateral horms of T1-L2  
🗑

🗑
show Myelin  
🗑

🗑
Where can you find Gray Rami Communicantes?   show
🗑
show Collection of neuron cell bodies outside of the CNS  
🗑
show Paravertebral Ganglia and Prevertebral Ganglia  
🗑
show Sympathetic Chain Ganglia & Sympatheic Trunk  
🗑
What spinal segments form the the Greater Splanchnic Nerve?   show
🗑
show Myelinated GVE axons leave the spinal cord to form the ventral roots, then continue on in the spinal nerve, then the GVE neurons exit the spinal nerve in the white rami and and then enter the paravertebral chain. At this point they can do 1 of 4 things.  
🗑
show 1. Synapse in the chain at the same level 2. Ascend or descend down the chain to synapse with a postganglionic neuron 3. Pass through the chain without synapsing and forms the splanchnic nerves. 4. Pass through chain & synapse in the Adrenal Medula T10-11  
🗑
show The small intestine and colon

What CN have parasympathetic function?   show
🗑
There is no parasympathetic input to sweat glands, arrector pili muscles, smooth muscle in the walls of blood vessels of the skin, skeletal muscle, upper or lower limbs, True or False   show
🗑
Where is the Superior Salivatory Nucleus located?   show
🗑
show In hte medulla at the pontomedullary junction  
🗑
show Beneath the floor of the 4th ventricle in the dorsal medulla
