What are the divisions of the autonomic nervous system anatomically?

Where are the cell bodies of pregangionic neurons, respectively?
SYMPATHETIC- (thoracolumbar) from T1 - L2 with cell bodies in the intromediolateral column

PARASYMPATHETIC- (craniosaccral) in the cranium and saccrum with cell bodies in brainstem nuclei or saccral autonomic nuclei of S2-S4
What are the main differences between cranial and spinal nerves?
1. Cranial nerves don't always have separate sensory/motor roots.
2. CN have different types of fiber composition.
3. CN don't always have dorsal root ganglion (but generally have equivalent).
4. NO SYMPATHETIC PREGANGLION FIBERS.
Where are CN afferent cell bodies?
Cranial seonsory Ganglia

V-Trigeminal = Trigeminal Ganglion / Mesencephalic Nucleus of V
VII-Facial = Geniculate Ganglion
VIII-Vesibulocochlear = Vestibular Ganglion / Spiral Ganglion
IX-Glossopharyngeal = Superior Ganglion / Inferior Ganglion
X-Vagus = Superior and Inferior Ganglion
Name the purely afferent CN:
1- Olfactory- sense of smell
2- Optic- eyesight
8- Vestibulochoclear- only sensation of gravity, balance, and hearing
Where are the cell bodies of the purely afferent CN?
1- Olfactory- within the brain
2- Optic- within the brain
8- Vestibulochoclear- in Superior and Inferior ganglia
What are the mixed afferent and efferent nerves?
5- Trigeminal
7- Facial
9- Glossopharyngeal
10- Vagus
12-Hypoglossal
What are the purely efferent / motor CN?
3- Occulomotor
4- Trochlear
6- Abducens
11-Spinal Accessory
What two CN are involved in receiving taste information?
7- Facial- anterior 2/3

9- Glossopharyngeal- posterior 1/3
