-
characteristic of the ANS, there are (1) cell bodies in the ___ that synapse with (2) autonomic _____, and finally with the (3) ____ (smooth muscle)
CNS; ganglia; involuntary effector
-
_______ motor neurons conduct along a single axon, unlike the ____ which involves two neurons (pre & postganglionic)
somatic; ANS
-
preganglionic neurons are in the ___, postganglionic neurons are in the ___
CNS; PNS
-
________________ is compensation (more sensitive) by an effector organ to continue functioning even if ANS nerves are damaged
denervation hypersensitivity
-
Rest and digest: _____ ; Fight or Flight: _______
parasympathetic nervous system ;sympathetic nervous system
-
_____ occurs in Sympathetic chain ganglia as Preganglionic fibers branch to synapse with numerous postganglionic neurons
Divergence
-
________ occurs when a postganglionic neuron receives input from a large number of preganglionic fibers.
Convergence
-
The ________ Nervous system preganglionic neurons only originate from between (thoracic)T1 down through (lumbar)L2 of the spinal cord.
Sympathetic
-
The _____ nervous system may have preganglionic neurons originate from the mid & hindbrain or the low (sacral) S2-4 of the spinal cord
parasympathetic
-
when shit gets real, the sympathetic nervous system's divergence and convergence of impulses causes __________
mass activation
-
The adrenal medulla works under mass activation to release adrenaline, which assists the ____ nervous system
sympathetic
-
Sympathetic NS: efferent neurons exit the ___ root of the spinal cord
dorsal
-
the _______ nerve ("wandering nerve") provides parasympathetic innervation to the heart, liver, GI, lungs, etc.
Vagus
-
___ is the NT of all preganglionic fibers (SNS & PSNS)
Acetylcholine (cholinergic fibers)
-
Most postganglionic nerve fibers release __________ NT
norepinephrine (adrenergic fibers)
-
_____ NS stimulates alpha and beta adrenergic receptors while the _______NS stimulates muscarinic receptors
sympathetic; PSNS
-
innervated by both SNS and PSNS is called ____________, which may be antagonistic, complementary, or cooperative
dual innervation
-
__________ dual innervation : each NS does a different job to enhance the same outcome (i.e. PSNS saliva secretion + SNS blood vessel constriction= more saliva)
Complementary
-
__________ dual innervation : each NS does a different job to allow something to work properly (i.e. PSNS arousal + SNS orgasm = sexual function)
cooperative
-
drugs like _____________ (belladonna) are muscarinic antagonists
atropine
-
blushing, butterflies, and fainting are made possible by the _________ through the ANS
limbic system
-
arrector pili muscles in the skin, sweat glands in the skin, most blood vessels, and the _________________ are NOT dual innervated
adrenal medulla
-
Sympathetic nerves that pass through the sympathetic chain without synapsing and instead synapse later in _________ (i.e. Celiac & superior/inferior mesenteric ganglion)
collateral ganglion (digestive, urinary, reproductive)
-
Parasympathetic nerves that innervate within the effector organ or very close to it are called _____________
terminal ganglia
-
terminal ganglia are in the _____ NS
PSNS
-
collateral ganglia are in the _____ NS
SNS
-
epinephrine is a _________
hormone
-
norepinephrine is a __________
hormone & NT
