CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
Brain and spinal cord
Send/receive information along with PNS
CNS CHARACTERISTICS
Encased in bone, surrounded by cerebrospinal fluid
Brain receives/sends information
Encased in cranium
Spinal cord made up of spinal nerves
nerve impulses & spinal reflexes
Encased in vertebra
TYPES OF TISSUE IN CNS
White matter
Myelinated nerve fibers & nerve tracts
Gray matter
Interneurons that pass information to skeletal muscle
PNS CHARACTERISTICS
Sensory and somatic nervous cells
Sends and receives information from CNS
Consists of the nerves and ganglia outside the brain and
spinal cord
Autonomic Nervous System
Part of the PNS
Located in medulla oblangata
Control visceral functions
Three parts
Parasympathetic NS
Sympathetic NS
Intrinsic NS
SOMATIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
Motor and sensory information
Voluntary control of body movement
Skeletal muscle
AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
CONTINUED…
Involuntary body functions
Sympathetic & parasympathetic systems
Sympathetic vs. Parasympathetic
Sympathetic
(thoracolumbar Division)
Parasympathetic
(Craniosacral Division)
Prepares the body for
More active under
energy-expending,
stressful, or emergency
situations.
Increases Heart and
Breathing Rates
Responsible for vasomotor
tone
ordinary and restful
situations
Restores the body to
resting state
Sympathetic Vs. Parasympathetic
(Organs)
Sympathetic
Eyes
Heart
Lungs
Blood Vessels
Sweat Glands
Digestive Tract
Kidney
Parasympathetic
Cardiac Muscle (Frequency
of contraction)
Digestive System (Salivary
Glands)
Respiratory System: (Blood
Vessels, Lymphatic Vessels,
and Nerves)
Sympathetic
Preganglionic fibers
Secrete acetylcholine (adrenergic)
Originate from neurons within the lateral horn of spinal cord
What is Ganglia?:
Sympathetic chain ganglia:(Paravertebral ganglia or Lateral
Ganglia) lies on both sides of the vertebral column
Collateral ganglia: (Prevertebral ganglia) anterior to vertebral
column
Sympathetic Continued….
Postganglionic Fibers
Extend sympathetic ganglia to visceral
Postganglionic Axons
What is Rami?
Rami: (Ramus)
Def: A branch, as of nerve,
vein, artery
Symapthetic Division (consists
2)
White Rami:(preganglionic)
nerve branch between
symapthetic ganglion and
spinal nerve
Gray Rami: (postganglionic)
connects sympathetic trunk
and consists postganglionic
fibers
Parasympathetic
Includes Parasympathetic Fibers
Pregangolic Fibers (Long)
Secrete acetylcholine (cholinergic)
Arise from Neurons
Terminal Ganglia
Parasympathetic Continued….
Postgangolic Fibers (Short)
Continue from ganglia to specific muscles or glands
Unmyelinated
Neurotransmitters combine receptors
Neurotransmitters / Receptors
(Sympathetic vs. Parasympathetic)
Sympathetic:
Norepinephrine :travels across
the synaptic cleft
Adrenergic (receptor)
Alpha 1&2
Beta 1&2
Epinephrine: stimulates
Parasympathetic:
Acetylcholine (ACh) :
Cholinergic (receptor)
Nicotinic
Muscarinic
REFLEX ARCS
Pathways for impulses
Autonomic Nervous System operates through reflex arcs.
Visceral Sensory System.
Gives sensory input to ANS.
Visceral sensory neurons.
monitor temperature, pain, irritation, chemical changes, and stretch in
the visceral organs.
VISCERAL REFLEX ARCS
Visceral sensory and
Autonomic neurons
spinal reflexes.
Some involve peripheral
neurons: spinal cord not
involved.
adjust the activity of a
visceral effector, often
unconsciously.
Termination
Terminating actions of autonomic neurotransmitters
Acetylcholinesterase (parasympathetic)
Norepinephrine (Sympathetic)
● Enzyme monoamine oxidase inactivates noreoinephrine
