System Containing Brain and Spinal Cord
CNS- Central Nervous System

(PNS is area outside brain and spinal cord)
ANS- Autonomic Nervous System is broken down into 2 divisions; name the divisions listing two words describing each.
Sympathetic- fight or flight

parasympathetic- rest and digest
What does the SNS control?
Skeletal muscle
Name the 2 horns of the "H" shaped gray matter.
Dorsal Horn (contains sensory axon and association neuron) and Ventral Horn (contains cell bodies of neuron)
What horn is found only in the thoracic region?
Lateral Horn (contains cell bodies of sympathetic and motor neurons)
Name the 4 neuronal plexus
cervical plexus, brachial plexus, lumbar plexus and Sacral Plexus
From which nerves does the cervical plexus originate?
The cervical plexus originates from C1-C5.
From which nerves does the brachial plexus originate?
The brachial plexus originates from C5-C8 and T1.
From which nerves does the Lumbar plexus originate?
The lumbar plexus originates from L1-L4, and sometimes T12.
What is the cell type for motor Nerves? Where are the cell bodies found?
Motor nerves are efferent, multipolar nerves whose cell bodies are found in the dorsal horn.
What is the cell type for sensory nerves? Where are the cell bodies found?
Sensory nerves are afferent unipolar nerves whose cell bodies are found in the dorsal root ganglia.
How do axon routes travel for sensory nerves?
Sensory nerves travel through the root to the dorsal horn.
What are the two divisions of the motor division of the PNS.
The PNS is divided into Autonomic nervous system and the Somatic Nervous System.
Where are the cell bodies of the somatic nervous system?
The cell bodies of the somatic nervous system are found in CNS contained within the vental horn of the spinal cord.
Where are the preganglionic cell bodies of the Sympathetic Division and Parasympathetic Division (of the ANS)found?
Ventral horn of Spinal Cord
