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) |
