Somatic motor nerve fibers fast or slow?
Fast conducting, thick (9-13um) and myelinated
Autonomic motor nerve fibers fast or slow?
slow conducting, preganglionic fibers lightly myelinated but thin (3um) postganglionic fibers unmyelinated and very thin (1.0um)
Is preganglionic nerve fibers long or short?
long
Is postganglionic nerve fibers long or short?
short
Adrenal Medulla
modified by sympathetic ganglion
secretory cells modified postganglionics
release epi into blood in response preganglionic stimulation
During mass activation of sympathetic system adrenal is activated releasing epi and norepi
Sympathetic mediates
fight, flight, or stress

norepi from post ganglionic fibers
epi from from adrenal medulla
Parasympathetic mediates
rest and digest
ACh from postganglionic fibers
where do preganglionic neurons originate?
Spinal cord between thoracic and lumbar levels
synapse with postganglionic neurons whose cell bodies are located in sympathetic region
What is the sympathetic and parasympathetic effect on the Iris?
sympathetic is dilation of pupil
parasympathetic constriction of pupil
Sympathetic and parasympathetic effect on ciliary muscle
sympathetic relaxation (for far vision)
parasympathetic contraction (near vision)
Sympathetic and parasympathetic effect on sweat glands
sympathetic - stimulation of secretion
parasympathetic- increased secretions, saliva becomes thin
Sympathetic and parasympathetic effect on sweat glands
sympathetic - stimulation of secretion
parasympathetic- none
Sympathetic and parasympathetic effect on salivary
sympathetic - salivary becomes thick
parasympathetic- increased salvation salivary becomes thin
Sympathetic and parasympathetic effect on mucous glands
sympathetic - inhibition of secretion
parasympathetic- stimulation of secretion
Sympathetic and parasympathetic effect on Pancreas
sympathetic - inhibition of exocrine secretions
parasympathetic - stimulation of exocrine fibers
Sympathetic and parasympathetic effect on Penis
sympathetic - ejaculation
parasympathetic - erection (due to vasodilation)
Where do preganglionic neurons originate?
Spinal cord between thoracic and lumbar levels
Where do preganglionic neurons synapse?
synapse with postganglionic neurons whose cell bodies are located in sympathetic ganglia

synapse in collateral ganglia

secrete epi
some innervate adrenal medulla
Adrenergic Effects
.stimulation of heart rate
.bronchodialation
.increase blood flow to skeletal muscle
.vasoconstriction in viscera and skin
.glycogenolsis in liver
dilation of pupils

9
effects of sympathetic nervous system)
.stimulation of heart rate
.bronchodialation
.increase blood flow to skeletal muscle

Norepi
Post ganglionic have unusual synapses called _____
varicosities
Drugs that promote actions of a NT are ____
agonists
(bind and activate)
Drugs that inhibit actions of a NT are _____
antagonists
(block neurotransmitter to do it's job)
Where do long preganglionics originate?
brain and spine
Where do preganglionic synapse?
on postganglionics in terminal ganglia Cranial nerves
Adrenergic effect on heart
increase heart rate and contraction strength
b1
Adrenergic effect on skin and visceral vessels
Arterioles constrict due to smooth muscle contraction
Adrenergic effect on skin and visceral vessels
Arterioles constrict due to smooth muscle contraction
a1
Adrenergic effects on lungs
Bronchioles dilate due to smooth muscle relaxation
B2
Propanolol
Beta blocking drug, lowers heart rate and BP also causes asthma
(B1 antagonist)
Atenolol
select B1 blocker, lowers hear rate, doesn't affect B2, give to heart patient
Terbutaline
selective b2 antagonist used by asthmatics
bronchioles dilate so pt can breath easier
What are the 2 subtypes of cholinergic receptors?
