Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)
 All neural structures outside the brain
 Sensory receptors
 Peripheral nerves and associated ganglia
 Motor neuron endings
 Pathway between CNS and outlying structures
 12 pairs of cranial nerves
 31 pairs of spinal nerves

Cranial Nerves
 12 pairs of nerves
 Associated with the brain
 Most are mixed in function
 Only 2 pairs are purely sensory
 Each nerve is identified by
 Number (I through XII)
 Name

Spinal Nerve Organization
 Spinal nerve connects to the spinal cord via two roots
 Ventral roots
Contain motor (efferent) fibers from the ventral horn motor neurons
 Fibers innervate skeletal muscles


Dorsal roots
Contain sensory (afferent) fibers from sensory neurons in the dorsal
root ganglia
 Conduct impulses from peripheral receptors

Spinal Nerve Organization
 Dorsal and ventral roots unite to form spinal nerves
 Emerge from vertebral column via the intervertebral foramina
Spinal Nerve Organization
 Rami
 Each spinal nerve branches into mixed rami
Dorsal ramus
 Ventral ramus
 Rami communicantes (autonomic pathways) join to the ventral
rami in the thoracic region
 Meningeal branch
