Question | Answer |
---|---|
the ANS regulates: | functions of internal organs |
the system that innervate smooth and cardiac muscles & glands | ANS |
the ANS operates is known as the ___ system | involuntary |
this system makes adjustments to ensure support for body activities | ANS |
the ANS is also called the _____ | general visceral motor system |
the somatic & autonomic nervous system differs in: | their effectors, efferent pathways & ganglia, & target organ response to neurontransmitters |
somatic nervous system stimulates: | skeletal muscle |
the somatic system is a ___ motor neuron chain that forms pathways from CNS to its effector | single |
the peripheal is broken up into 2 divisions. what are they? | sensory & motor |
what are the 2 motor divisions? | somatic & autonomic |
what are the 2 divisions of the autonomic system? | sympathetic & parasympathetic |
ANS has dual innervation, which means: | |
is somatic voluntary or involuntary? | voluntary |
somatic system neurotransmitter | ACh |
somatic only has a ___ effect | stimulatory |
the autonomic system can have an __ or __ effect | stimulatory or inhibitory |
what is the autonomic system neurotransmitter? | ACh or norepinephrine |
the type of effect depends on the: | neurotransmitter |
sympathetic system is known as the: | fight or flight system |
all preganglionic fibers release: | ACh |
how many neuron chains does the autonomic system have? | 2 |
this autonomic system mobilizes body during activity | sympathetic |
exercise, excitement, emergency or embarrassment are apart of which system? | sympathetic |
___ and ___ stimulates the somatic nervous system | norepinephrine & epinephrine |
which system has short preganglionic and long postganglionic fibers? | sympathetic |
