Definition
|
|
Term

|
Definition
| Brain and sacral region of the spinal cord. |
|
|
Term
| Preganglionic neurosomas place of origin in the parasympathetic region. |
|
Definition
| Midbrain, pons, medulla oblongata and segments S2 -> S4 of the spinal cord. |
|
|
Term
| Describe the preganglionic fibers of the sympathetic division. |
|

|
|
Term
| Describe the preganglionic and fibers of the parasympathetic division. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Describe the postganglionic fibers of the sympathetic divison. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Describe the postganglionic fibers of the parasympathetic division. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Origin of preganglionic neurosomas of the sympathetic divison. |
|
Definition
| Gray matter of spinal cord. |
|
|
Term
| Origin of preganglionic fibers of the sympathetic division |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Function of the sympathetic divison of the ANS. |
|
Definition
| increases alertness, heart rate, blood pressure, pulmonary airflow, blood glucose concentration and blood flow to cardiac and skeletal muscle. Reduces blood flow to the skin and digestive tract. |
|
|
Term
| Function of the parasympathetic division of the ANS. |
|
Definition
| Reduces energy expenditure. Functions in digestion and waste elimination. |
|
|
Term
| What is the major difference in the splanchnic nerve route and the spinal and sympathetic nerve routes in the sympathetic division of the ANS. |
|
Definition
| The preganglionic fibers pass through the paravertebral ganglia without synapsing. The preganglionic fibers continue to a 2nd ganglion outside of the paravertebral ganglion to synapse, with the postganglionic fibers. |
|
|
Term
| What is the spinal nerve route of the sympathetic division of the ANS. |
|
Definition
| The preganglionic fibers synapse within the sympathetic chain ganglion at the level of entry. |
|
|
Term
| What is the sympathetic nerve route of the sympathetic division of the ANS. |
|
Definition
| The preganglionic fibers ascend or descend within the sympathetic chain and synapse with the paravertebral ganglion at a different level. |
|
|
Term
| What is the white communicating ramus? |
|
Definition
| The myelinated route that preganglionic fibers arise to the paravertebral ganglion. |
|
|
Term
| Which division of the ANS does the paravertebral ganglion belong with? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Does the parasympathetic division of the ANS interact with white and gray communicating ramus? |
|
Definition
| No, only the sympathetic. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Receptor for ACh in the postganglion synapse of the parasympathetic division of the ANS. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Releases or recepts ACh. Located in the preganglionic synapse of both the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions and the postganglionic synapse of the parasympathetic division. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| recepts norepinephrin. Only in the postganglionic synapse of the sympathetic division of the ANS. There is alpha and beta. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Receptor in the preganglionic synapse of the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions. |
|
|
Term
| What is the alpha-adrenergic feceptor. |
|
