AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM



Parasympathetic or craniosacral divisionTo maintain body under resting conditions
 Preganglionic neuron: located in CNS, found in brain and

sacral part of spinal cord (s2-s4)
 Pregaglionic fibers: from CNS to ganglia
 Intramural or terminal ganglion- contain ganglionic neurons
 postganglionic fibers: from ganglia to organ
Sympathetic or thoraco lumbar divisionTo put the body in alert state
Preganglionic neuron: in CNS (spinal cord t1-l2)
White ramus communicans: contain preganglionic unmyelinatesd fibers
Splanchnic nerves – preganglionic fibers
Sympathetic chain ganglia: contain ganglionic neurons
collateral ganglion: contain ganglionic neurons
