| Question | Answer |
| Is the ANS a 1-neuron system or 2-neuron system? | two-neuron system |

| Which organs do postganglionic fibers from the pelvic splanchnic nerves innervate? | rectum, bladder, sex erectile tissues, testes/ovaries, uterus, uterine tubes, and parts of large intestines (from splenic flexure to anus) |
| What are the PSNS functions of the pelvic splanchnic nerves? | urinary detrusor contraction, trigone/sphincter relaxation, erection & vasodilation, GI gland secretion, and increased GI motility |
| Where do sympathetic cell bodies originate (in the spinal cord)? | T1-L1 or 2 |
| Where do sympathetic preganglionic fibers synapse? | paravertebral ganglia or prevertebral ganglia |
| Where do sympathetic postganglionic fibers travel to (target organs)? | sweat glands, arrector pili muscles (hairs), blood vessels, heart, and lungs |
| What are the functions of sympathetic nerve fibers? | raise HR (and conduction velocity and ventricular contraction force), vessel constriction, pupil dilation, bronchi dilation, decreased GI motility, GI sphincter contraction, and ejaculation |
| What is the basis/cause of Horner’s syndrome? | interruption of the LTT (lateral tectotegmentospinal tract- completely ipsilateral) which is under hypothalamus influence |

| What is Orthostatic Hypotension? | LBP from sitting or standing- dizziness, light-headed, or even faint; may be associated with ANS neuropathies or other dysautonomias |
| What is Vasovagal syncope? | most common cause of fainting- overreaction to triggers (seeing blood, emotional distress)- sudden drop in HR and BP, which reduced blood to brain- the ANS isn’t properly regulating HR and BP in response to the trigger |
