what are the differences between and ANS and the somatic motor system?
ANS:
-multiple, widespread, slow actions
-wide, coordinated and graded control
-commands all tissue and organs except skeletal
-outside CNS
-disynaptic pathwau
Somatic MS
-actions rapid and accurate
-only peripheral targets
-commands only skeletal muscle
-within CNS
-monosynaptic pathway
what is the structure of the ANS?
CNS to preganglionic fibre synapse at autonomic ganglion down postganglionic fibre to smooth muscle/gland cell/cardiac muscle
what are the two division of the ANS?
sympathetic and parasympathetic
what does sympathetic division control?
-increased HR and BP
-depressed digestive function
-mobilized glucose reserves
what does parasympathetic divison control?
-slower HR, lower BP
-increased digestive function
-stop sweating
difference between sympathetic and parasympathetic structure?
sympathetic has ganglion much closer to CNS than parasympathetic. (ie sympathetic has shorter pre-ganglionic fibre and longer post-ganglionic fibre, para is opposite)
what's the effector function of somatic motor vs ANS?
somatic motor controls skeletal muscle, ANS controls smooth muscle cardiac muscle and gland cells

what is the structure of the ANS?
CNS to preganglionic fibre synapse at autonomic ganglion down postganglionic fibre to smooth muscle/gland cell/cardiac muscle
what are the two division of the ANS?
sympathetic and parasympathetic
what does sympathetic division control?
-increased HR and BP (bv and heart)
-depressed digestive function (gut)
-mobilized glucose reserves (liver)
-orgasm (gonads)
-inhibits micturation (gonads)
what does parasympathetic divison control?
-slower HR, lower BP
-increased digestive function
-stop sweating
sympathetic chain features:
-entire length of vertebral column
-paravertebral: ganglia associated with vertebral levels
-ganglion impar terminal
-superior, middle and inferior cervical ganglia
-prevertebral ganglia - found on aorta or organ of innervation
how does sympathetic supply local (T1-L2/3) structures?
-leave IML
-travel in ventral roots
-join spinal nerve
-synapse on sympathetic post ganglionic cell
-leave and enter spinal nerve
-enter dorsal and ventral primary rami
-supply local structures (blood vessels to muscles)
how does sympathetic supply distant (above T1- below L2/3) structures?
-leave IML and travel in ventral roots
-join spinal nerve
-enter and traverse sympathetic ganglion
-leave and enter synaptic chain (trunk)
-ascend or descend then synapse on ganglion cell
-enter dorsal and ventral primary rami
-supply distant structures (head, lower extremities)
how does sympathetic supply medial visceral structures?
-leave IML
-travel in ventral roots
-join spinal nerve
-enter sympathetic ganglion
-can synapse on sympathetic post-ganglionic cell (heart) or not (guts and gonads)
-leave and enter either cardiac or splanchnic nerves
-synapse on prevertebral ganglia
-supply organ
