Autonomic Nervous System and Visceral Reflexes • Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) – general properties – anatomy • Autonomic Effects on Target Organs • Central Control of Autonomic Function 15-2 Autonomic Nervous System • portion of the nervous system that operates in comparative secrecy • it manages a multitude of unconscious processes responsible for the body’s homeostasis • Walter Cannon – coined the expressions as homeostasis and fight or flight – dedicated his career to studying the ANS • homeostasis cannot be maintained without the ANS 15-3 General Properties of ANS • autonomic nervous system (ANS) – a motor nervous system that controls glands, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle – also called visceral motor system – primary organs of the ANS – carries out actions involuntarily – without our conscious intent or awareness 15-4 Visceral Reflexes • visceral reflexes - unconscious, automatic, stereotyped responses to stimulation involving visceral receptors and effectors and somewhat slower responses • visceral reflex arc – • receptors – nerve endings that detect stretch, tissue damage, blood chemicals, body temperature, and other internal stimuli ANS modifies effector activity 15-5 Visceral Reflex to High BP Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

Chase, MD Figure 15.3 15-13 Sympathetic Nervous System • after entering the sympathetic chain, the postganglionic fibers may follow any of three courses – some end in ganglia which they enter and synapse immediately with a postganglionic neuron – some travel up or down the chain and synapse in ganglia at other levels – some pass through the chain without synapsing and continue as splanchnic nerves 15-14 Sympathetic Nervous System • nerve fibers leave the sympathetic chain by spinal, sympathetic, and splanchnic nerves – spinal nerve route • • – some postganglionic fibers exit a ganglion by way of the gray ramus returns to the spinal nerve and travels the rest of the way to the target organ sympathetic nerve route • • • other nerves leave by way of sympathetic nerves that extend to the heart, lungs, esophagus and thoracic blood vessels these nerves form carotid plexus around each carotid artery of the neck issue fibers from there to the effectors in the head – • – sweat, salivary, nasal glands, piloerector muscles, blood vessels, dilators of iris some fibers of superior and middle cervical ganglia form cardiac nerves to the heart splanchnic nerve route • some fibers that arise from spinal nerves T5 to T12 pass through the sympathetic ganglia without synapsing – – continue on as the splanchnic nerves lead to second set of ganglia – collateral (prevertebral) ganglia and synapse there 15-15 Sympathetic Nervous System • collateral ganglia contribute to a network called the abdominal aortic plexus – – wraps around abdominal aorta three major collateral ganglia in this plexus • • – solar plexus – collective name for the celiac and superior mesenteric ganglia • • celiac, superior mesenteric, and inferior mesenteric postganglionic fibers accompany these arteries and their branches to their target organs nerves radiate from ganglia like rays of the sun neuronal divergence predominates – each preganglionic cell branches and synapses on 10 to 20 postganglionic cells – one preganglionic neuron can excite multiple postganglionic fibers leading to different target organs – have relatively widespread effects 15-16 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.
