  • 3rd side (hint)

function of the ANS

controls all other effectors (cardiac and smooth)

effectors of the ANS

muscle, glands, involuntary muscles

components of visceral reflex arcs

rapid, automatic, stereotyped responses to environment stimuli

three stages of a visceral reflex arc

receptor to integrator to effector

fight, flight, or fright

sympathetic

“housekeeping” division that is for resting and digesting or calming down after the affects of sympathetic division

parasympathetic

both branches of ANS are active to some degree (both sympathetic and parasympathetic)

autonomic tone

pathway in which effectors always have two neurons transferring messages with a synapse in between them

two neuron pathway

3 differences between sympathetic (somatic) and parasympathetic (autonomic) nervous systems

where paths leave the CNS, where the first neuron goes out, and where the second neuron goes out

the spinal cord region which the sympathetic nervous system arises from

middle part of the spinal cord in the thoracic and lumbar region

supplemental spinal cords on each side of the cerebral column from cervical to coccygeal level

sympathetic chain ganglia

1st neuron in sympathetic runs ____ and 2nd neuron runs _____

short, long

spinal cord region where parasympathetic nervous system arises

end or on top of the spinal cord

where the first neuron goes all the way to the target organ and almost touches the effector

terminal ganglia

parasympathetic’s 1st neuron runs _____ and the 2nd neuron runs ______

long, short

neuron in the parasympathetic organ that goes all the way down to the target organ

preganglionic neuron

before ganglion

neuron from the parasympathetic nervous system that is close to the effector but only goes short distance left to go

postganglionic

after ganglion

the enteric nervous system is located in the _____ system

digestive

key difference in enteric nervous system from other nervous systems

like the ANS, but doesn’t come out of brain or spinal cord, but is in the walls of the digestive tract

100 million neurons where?

neurotransmitter released by post and preganglionic neurons in the parasympathetic nervous system

ACh

two types of cholinergic receptors (receptors for ACh)

muscarinic and nicotinic

musc=fungus and nicotine

neurotransmitter in the sympathetic division

norepinephrine

NE

two types of adrenergic receptors (receptors of NE)

a-adrenergic and b-andrenergic

when body parts are innervated by both parasympathetic and sympathetic

dual innervation

antagonistic effect do balance each other out

the idea that ANS is not an independent nervous system and is greatly influenced by the CNS

central control of autonomic function

voluntary examples: anger releasing BP, fear increases HR)
