Term
What are the three target tissues of ANS innervation
Definition
Cardiac musc, smooth musc, glands
Term
Where does the SNS originate?
Definition
intermediolateral horns of T1-L2 (thoraco-lumbar outflow)
Term
What is the Cranial nerve, peripheral ganglia, and target organ of the Edinger-Westphal nucleus
Definition
III, Ciliary ganglia, sphincter pupillae m.
Term
What is the Cranial nerve, peripheral ganglia, and target organ of the superior salivatory nucleus
Definition
VII, pterygopalatine ganglia- lacrimal gland, submandibular ganglia- sublingual and submandibular
Term
What is the Cranial nerve, peripheral ganglia, and target organ of the inferior salivatory nucleus
Definition
IX, Otic ganglia, parotid gland
Term
What is the Cranial nerve, peripheral ganglia, and target organ of the dorsal motor nucleus
Definition
X, myenteric and submucosal ganglia, smooth musc and glands of GI tract
Term
What nerves are the neurons that pass through the sympathetic trunk without synapsing? Where do they synapse?
Definition
Splanchnic nerves. Synapse on prevertebral ganglia assoc with abdominal aorta (I.e. celiac ganglia)
Term
In general, norepinephrine is the neurotransmitter SNS releases. However, two exceptions exist, what are they?
Definition
neurons to sweat glands and vasodilator fibers release acetylcholine
Term
What are the main neurotransmitters in SNS and PNS
Definition
SNS- NE; PNS- acetylcholine
Term
does pain run with SNS or PNS?
Definition
SNS
Term
What is the sympathetic innervation to the proximal colon?
Definition
Thoracic splanchnic nerves
Term
What is the sympathetic innervation to the distal colon?
Definition
Lumbar splanchnic nn
Term
What is the parasympathetic innervation to the distal colom?
Definition
Pelvic splanchnic nn
Term
What is the parasympathetic innervation to the proximal colom?
Definition
vagus nerve
Term
What innervates the detrussor musc (musc of bladder wall)
Definition
PNS- S2-S4, pelvic splanchnic (inhibited when storing urine)
Term
Innervation to internal urethral sphincter (involuntary smooth musc in bladder of males)
Definition
sympathetic- T11-L2, lumbar splanchnic nn. (SNS activated to contract it during storage)
Term
Innervation to external urethral sphincter (skeletal, voluntary musc around membranous urethra)
Definition
Somatic motor- pudendal nerve (activated for contraction during storage)
Term
Mnemonic to remember innervation of urination
Definition
{Store urine with SNS, Pee with PNS}
Term
Effect of PNS on uterus, vaginal glands, and clitoris
Definition
Uterine smooth musc relaxation, incr secretion of vaginal glands, vasodilation with engorgement of clitoris
Term
Effect of SNS on uterus and vessels of vagina
Definition
uterine smooth musc contraction and vasoconstriction
Term
General visceral sensation from uterus and vagina?
Definition
pelvic splanchnic nn
Term
Pain sensation from uterine fundus and body
Definition
sympathetic lumbar splanchnic nn
Term
Pain sensation from the uterine cervix and upper vagina
Definition
parasympathetic pelvic splanchnic nn
Term
Pain sensation form lower part of vagina
Definition
somatic fibers via pudendal nerve
