Autonomic Nervous system (3) parts
|
Sympathetic division-fight or flight
Parasympathetic division-rest and digest Enteric divison of the ans-reflexive activity of the gastrointeestinal system |
|
Neurotransmitters of ANS
|
Acetylcholine, Norepinephrine, Epinephrine
Cholinergic receptors Adrenergic receptors |
|
Nerves exit the cns as
System is reserved for Higher synapse for this system What kind of awareness |
spinal and cranial nerves
involuntary control of body structures including smooth/cardic muscle and glands end in the hypothalamus Unconscious-unless the stimulant is strong enough to elicit pain |
|
Automatic motor division of the pns, motor neurons of the ANS
Regulates |
synapse with ganglia and ultimately effector tissue
activities of cardic/smooth muscle and glands |
|
Sensory neurons fo the ANS division are
|
autonomic and monitor viscera environment (yoga, biofeedback therapy)
|
|
Sympathetic "fight or flight"
|
response to unusual stimulus
takes over the body systems to increase activities E division, exerciese, excitement, emergency and embarrassment |
|
Parasympathetic rest or digest
|
conserves energy
maintains daily body functions sludd-saliviation, lacrimation, urination, digestion, and defectaton |
|
autonomic tone
|
describes how both systems balance each other out. as sympathetics turned up parasympatheices are turned down.
|
|
Autonomic nervous system (3)
|
multipolar-found in the periphery and has many dendrites and only one other process
bipolar-utilzed for special senses unipolar-sensory nerves which input information to the cns |
|
where are the cell bodies of the ans motor neuron found
|
lateral horn of spinal cord
|
|
Where do the neurons synapes in peripheral ganglia
|
with other neurons or withing the effector organs
|
|
Postganglionic neurons
|
will extend beyond the ganglion or effector tissue
|
|
How do sensory neurons travel
|
ans travel with sensory neurons of the sns withing the pns going to the cns
|
|
Interoceptors (2)
|
Chemoreceptors-measure co2 blood levels inthe great vessles
Mechanoreceptors-measure stretch of arteries determining blood pressure. (amount of water in blood) |
|
How is information sent to the hypothalamus
|
using internerurons responses are sent out using interneurons
|
|
What is another name for the sypathetic nervous system
|
Thoracolumbar division-nerves exit spinal cord from the named regions
|
|
Paravertebral ganglia
|
head causing dryness of the glands and dilation of the pupils
above diaphragm |
|
prevertebral ganglia
|
splanchnic nerves
below diaphragm |
|
Adrenal Medulla
|
inside adrenal gland
synapse here stimulates cells fo the adrenal glands relases norepinephrine and epinephrine when stimulated |
|
parasympathetic nervous system
|
rest and digest
conserves energy for rebuilding of tissues nerves exit scaral spinal cord and brainstem |
|
Parasympathetic nerves are also called
|
crainalsacral division
|
|
Parasympathetic
|
constrict eye
secrete saliva constrict bronchioles slow down heart beat increase secretion in stomach increase motility empty colon empty bladder |
|
sympathetic
|
dilate eyes
stop secretion dialtate bronchioloes speed up heartbeat secrete adrenlinyne delaying emptying retain colon contents |
|
Guts brain called
located |
enteric
located in sheaths of tissue lining esophagus, stomach, small intestine and colon |
|
Cholinergic neurons release
Adrenergic neurons release |
ACH
norepinephrine and epinephrine |
|
Neurotansmitters: what releases Ach
|
all preganlionic sympathetic and parasympathetics neurons release (extitatory response)
|
|
Sympathetic postganglionic neurons will release ach to
|
sweat glands to muscarinic receptors
|
|
Somatic vs autonomic
How many nerves |
Somatic-one neuron, originates in cns, axons extend to skeletal muscles
Autonomic-two neurons, preganglionic and postganglionic neurons. |
|
Somatic vs autonomic
effector organ |
somatic-skeletal
autonomic-smooth, cardiac and glands |
|
Somatic vs autonomic
subdivisons |
somatic-none
parasomatic-parasympathetic and sympathetic |
|
Somatic vs autonomic
neurotransmitter |
somatic-ach
parasomatic-ach, epinephrine, norepinephrine |
|
Sensation
|
use of receptors to detect conscious or subconscious awareness of changes in the external or internal environment
|
|
Perception
|
conscious awareness and interpretation of sensation
|
|
sensory modalities will generally fall into two categories
|
general sensation: somatic viscera
special sensation: sight, hearing, balance, smell, taste |
|
specialized cells found all over the body 5 steps
|
1) be stimulated
2) graded is formed 3) graded potential increases in strenght and reached threshold 4) impluse is created 5) info is propagated along the sensory neuron and intergataed cns |
|
types of receptors
|
free nerve endings-stimulated by pain
encapsulated nerve endings-stimulated by touch, pressure separate cells-stimulated by external environment, found in special senses |
|
Free nerve endings-
encapsulated nerve endings separate cells |
dendrites are exposed
dendrites are encapsulated by connective tissue cells other that the bipolar neuron is stimulated ex. hair, photoreceptors |
|
Classification of receptors by location
|
exteroreceptros (external surface)
interoceptors (receptors of the ans) proprioceptors (joint or areas of boyd that detect body positon) |
|
types of receptors by stimulus
|
mechanoreceptors-pressure, touch, motion, sound, vibration
Thermoreceptors-temperature, hot cold sensory Nocioceptors-pain, touch reptors, dendrites not covered photoreceptors-vision, found in eyes proprioceptors-joints position where is it chemoreceptors-chemical in coraid arteries job to stimulate neurons wall of artery decrease o2 increase co2 osmoreceptors-thirst, |
|
muscle spindle
|
cells surrounding deep specialized muscle fibers
used to detect excessive stretch of muscles motor responds by causing contraciton of the ipsilateral muscle |
|
Golgi tendon organ
|
special cells connected to tendons
used to detect increase tendon/muscle tension muscle relations results |
|
Sensory neurons pathways
(3) orders |
1) neurons entering the posterior spinal cord
2) synapse in the posterior horn and crosses to other side of the spinal cord 3) synapes in the relay sation thalamus, continues onward to cerebral cortex |
|
Motor neurons
|
Lower-neurons exciting the anterior spinal cord and supplying the skeletal muscles
Upper synapse in the anterior horn of the spinal cord extending from the cerebral cortex |
|

severed or damaged lower motor neurons
skeletal muscles are unable to contract and are faccid |
|
spastic
|
