CHAPTER FOURTEEN
1.
Effector tissues of the somatic nervous system are ____________________ muscles.
2.
Effector tissues of the autonomic nervous system include ___________________, ___________________,
and ________________________.
3.
An autonomic neuron that extends from the CNS to an autonomic ganglion is called the _______________
neuron.
4.
Neurotransmitters of the autonomic nervous system include __________________________________ and
___________________________________________.
5.
The parasympathetic nervous system is commonly called the “_____________________________” system
because it is most active during periods of relaxation.
6.
Based on the location of preganglionic cell bodies, the sympathetic division of the ANS is sometimes called
the _______________________________________ division.
7.
The ____________________ nervous system has short preganglionic neuron and long postganglionic
neurons.
8.
The ____________________ nervous system possesses preganglionic fibers that synapse within ganglia
near the visceral effector tissues.
9.
______________________________ ganglia lie in a vertical row on either side of the vertebral column
from the base of the skull to the coccyx.
10. The cranial outflow of the parasympathetic nervous system includes: _____________________________,
____________________________, _____________________________ and ________________________.
11. The ___________________ nerve innervates the parotid gland and synapses within the ________________
ganglia.
12. There are two ganglia associated with the _________________ nerve: the __________________________
ganglion innervates the nasal mucosa and lacrimal gland while the ________________________________
ganglion extends to the salivary glands near the tongue.
13. Cranial nerve # _____________ synapses within the __________________ ganglia found in the eye orbits
and is responsible for innervating the smooth muscles of the eye causing pupil constriction.
14. The _______________ nerve has many ganglia that are located near the visceral organs that they innervate.
Each does not have a specific name, instead they are collectively called ____________________ ganglia.
15. Sacral outflow fibers of the parasympathetic nervous system issue from the lateral region of the spinal cord
and form the pelvic _____________________________ nerves.
16. Preganglionic neurons of the sympathetic nervous system extend from the _____________________ and
_______________________________ regions of the spinal cord.
17. Preganglionic neurons enter the sympathetic trunk through __________________ rami communicans while
postganglionic neurons leave the sympathetic trunk through _____________________ rami communicans.
18. Ganglia within the sympathetic trunk are called _____________________________ ganglia.
19. Splanchnic nerves synapse in _______________________ ganglia which lie outside the sympathetic trunk.
20. The splanchnic nerve that does not synapse within a ganglion before contacting the effector cells innervates
the __________________________________________.
21. The __________________ ganglion innervates the stomach, adrenal medulla, liver, kidneys and intestines.
22. The __________________________________ ganglion innervates smooth muscles and glands of the head.
23. The ____________________________ ganglion innervates the large intestines.
24. The ______________ and _______________ cervical ganglion innervates the heart, aorta, bronchioles and
esophageal sphincters.
25. The ___________________________________ nerve synapses within the celiac ganglion or the superior
mesenteric ganglion.
26. The ____________________________________ ganglion innervates the rectum and anal sphincter.
27. For each of the following, indicate if the activity is associated with a Parasympathetic (P) or a Sympathetic
(S) response:
a. _______________ Increased mental activity
b.
_______________ Cause erection
c.
_______________ Constricts the bronchioles
d.
_______________ Stimulates secretions of the adrenal gland
e.
_______________ Increases coagulation
f.
_______________ Stimulates the release of glucose from the liver
g.
_______________ Constricts the irises
h.
_______________ Decreases activity of the salivary glands
i.
_______________ Increases the motility of the stomach and intestines
j.
_______________ Constricts blood vessels and increases blood pressure
k.
_______________ Stimulates sweat production
l.
_______________ Decreases heart rate and constricts coronary blood vessels
m. _______________ Causes ejaculation
n.
_______________ Increases metabolic rate
o.
_______________ Causes contraction of the bladder walls and relaxes the urethral sphincter
p.
_______________ Stimulates goose bump formation
28. Cholinergic receptors bind _______________________ and are classified as either nicotinic or muscarinic.
29. Adrenergic receptors bind ______________________________ and ____________________________
and are classified as either alpha or beta.
30. Beta-blockers are able to _______________________________ the heart rate by reducing the effects of
norepinephrine and epinephrine.
