Peripheral nervous system (PNS)
somatic nervous system
visceral nervous system
visceral sensory
visceral motor
parasympathetic nervous system
sympathetic nervous system
Peripheral sensory receptors
free nerve endings of sensory neurons
complete receptor cells
Classification by location
exteroceptors
touch
pressure
pain
temperature
most receptors of special sense organs
interoceptors (visceroceptors)
chemical concentration
taste stimuli
stretching of tissues
temperature
proprioceptors
musculoskeletal organs (skeletal muscles, tendons, joints, ligaments)
Classification by stimulus detected
mechanoreceptors
touch
pressure
stretch
vibration
itch
thermoreceptors
temperature
chemoreceptors
chemicals in solution (taste, smell)
changes in blood chemistry
photoreceptors
light
nociceptors
1
harmful stimuli that cause pain
Cranial nerves
cranial nerves attach to the brain and pass through foramina in the skull
innervate only head and neck structures (except for the vagus nerve, X)
Spinal nerves
31 pairs of nerves attach to the spinal cord
innervate most of the body inferior to the head
C1-C8 cervical nerves
C1 exits superior to the first vertebra
C8 exits inferior to the seventh cervical vertebra
all other nerves exit inferior to the vertebra with the same number
T1-T12 thoracic nerves
L1-L5 lumbar nerves
S1-S5 sacral nerves
Co1
coccygeal nerves
dorsal root
rootlets
sensory fibers
dorsal root ganglia
lie within the intervertebral foramina (together with spinal nerves)
ventral root
rootlets
motor fibers
spinal nerve
dorsal ramus (plural: dorsal rami)
supply dorsum of the neck and trunk (the back)
ventral ramus (plural: ventral rami)
supply anterior and lateral regions of the neck and trunk, all regions of the
limbs
rami communicantes leads to sympathetic trunk ganglia
know the difference between roots and rami
nerve plexus, a network of nerves
ventral rami of all of all spinal nerves except T2-T12
basic characteristics
1) each end branch of the plexus contains fibers from several different spinal
nerves
2) fibers from each ventral ramus travel to the body periphery via several
different routes or branches
cervical
brachial
lumbar
sacral
