what denotes the ANS?
|
parasympathetic (craniosacral) system plus the sympathetic (thoracolumbar) system
|
|
waht are the homeostatic fx of the ANS?
|
pupil size and lens focus
salivation,urination,deficatn GI tract mobility /digestion cardivascular -BPM, contratx glandular secretions sexual function thermoregulation |
|
sympa or para:
vegetative fx, local rxns |
parasympathetic
|
|
list para/sympa actions on the eye
|
para: pupil constrx, accomodation
sympa:pupil dilation |
|
ANS effects of GI tract
|
para: peristalsis
sympa:dec'd motility |
|
ANS effects on the cardiovascular system
|
para: HR, contactility, constrx tone of arteioles and veins
sympa: increases HR, CO , BP |
|
role of sympa on blood vessels
|
venous constriction to increase return, arteriolar constriction in unneeded tissues, skin,
|
|
which secretes EPI, sympa or para?
|
sympa - in response to fight or flight
|
|
pupil restricts in response to bright light
|
para
|
|
pupillary dilation
|
sympa
|
|
GI motility and secretions increase during superbowl
|
para
|
|
head ganglion
|
hypothalamus
|
|
CNS
|
automic fx of the spinal cord and brain
|
|
powerful influence on sympa and para activity flowing from CN 3,7,9,10
|
parts of cerebral cortex
limbic system cerebellum hypothalamus brain stem |
|
what denotes the craniosacral system?
|
CN 3,7,9,10 and sacral spinal nerves S2,3,4
|
|
what type of fibers are main in craniosacral?
|
parasympathetic
|
|
what denotes the thoracolumbar system
|
T1-L2
|
|
what type of fibers are main in thoracolumbar system?
|
sympathetic
|
|
this has short postganglionic, long preganglionic
|
parasympathetic NS
|
|
Ach is released onto nicotinic receptors Nn
|
preganglionic NT of para and sympa
|
|
NE is released onto adrenergic receptors
|
sympathetic
|
|
short preganglionic, long postganglionic
|
sympathetic
|
|
Ach is released onto muscarinic receptors M2, M3
|
parasympathetic
|
|
CN or SSN>pregang>Ach>nicotinic on postgang>Ach >target organ -muscarinic receptors
|
parasympathetic NS
|
|
path for parasympathetic to the head from midbrain
|
midbrain>CN3>cilary gang>pulillary constriction & ciliary muscles
|
|
path for parasympa to head via Pons
|
Pons>CN7> lacrimal gland or submandibular gland
|
|
to get to target organ, sympathetic fiber route utilizes?
|
thoracolumbar>short pre>Ach>Nn>long post>NE>adrenergic receptor on target organ
|
|
what are visceral efferents?
|
motor fibers of sympa and para
|
|
paravertebral ganglia
|
located clost to both sides of vertebral column and are sympa chain gang.
|
|
prevertebral ganglia
|
collateral ganglia located periperhal to vertebral column
|
|
what system activates sweating? what is unusual about this?
|
sympathetic
*Ach is the postgang. NT at the target organ instead of NE |
|
what is the termed used to describe the fibers activated during sweating?
|
sympathetic cholinergic sudomotor fibers
|
|
Horner's syndrome
|
loss of sweating
|
|
what are the motor neurons that go to the skeletal (voluntary) muscle called?
|
alpha motor neurons
|
|
what is different about alpha motor neuron path?
|
fibers exit the spinal cord and go directly to the skeletal muscle -activate motor endplate and cx release of Ach onto Nm receptors
THERE ARE NO GANGLIA INVOLVED |
|
path: spinal N>motor fiber>Ach>skeletal muscle>Nm
|
somatic efferent fibers of the alpha motor neurons
|
|
medulla>CN9>parotid gland- what system?
|
parasympathetic to the head
|
|
list the para fibers that go from body wall to limbs
|
cant, there aren't any!
|
|
to get to vasomotor, sudomot and pilomotor fibers of the arm, a nerve must travel...
|
exit T2-T6>middle cervical ganglia or Stellage ganglia>thru brachial plexus>arm
|
|
Vasomotor, sudomotor, pilomotor acronym
|
VSP
|
|
where is the NT going?
T1-T6>superior cervical ganglia>internal carotid A> |
pupilary dilator musces, vasomotor, sudomotor fibers of the head
|
|
to get to the VSP of lower body wall, legs and feet, a NT must travel via
|
T12-L3>sympathetic chain>fused lower lumbar & sacral chain gang>lumbosacral plexus>via peripheral N> home
|
|
parasympathetic to body cavity viscera - from medulla
|
medulla>vagus N>heart, lungs, abdominal viscera
|
|
path: S2-S4>pelvic splanchnic N>distal colon, bladder, geneticals, rectum anus. system?
|
para
|
|
using sympathetic system, take me to the heart from being poked in the back
|
T4-T1>superior cervical gang>heart
|
|
how do I get to the abdominal viscera from T5-T12?
|
using sympa fibers>thoracic splanchnic N>synapse in celiac and SMA collateral gang clumped around the abd. aorta>follow the arteries>abdominal viscera
|
|
I ahve synapsed i the inf. mesenteric ganglia and hypogasteric /pelvic plexi, where did I come from and where can I go?
|
you came from T12-L2>lumbar splanchnic N>to the synapse>followed the arteries and landed in the pelvic viscera
|

you go from PHL to Atlanta and on to PDX, where are you going?
|
Im going home!!! yay!!!!
