Preganglionic fibers of the parasympathetic division of the ANS synapse with the?
Their corresponding Postganlionic fibres.
Which target organ is NOT affected by the parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system ANS?
adrenal medula
What are two major components of the parasympathetic division of the ANS?
Cranial nerves and Pelvic Splanchnic Nerves
What component of the ANS is characterized by ganglion located in or near effector organs?
The component of the ANS that is characterized by ganglion located in or near effector organs is called the parasympathetic nervous system. The ganglia of the parasympathetic nervous system are located close to or within the target organs they innervate, allowing for direct and localized control of bodily functions. This branch of the autonomic nervous system is responsible for promoting rest, digestion, and relaxation.
What are the divisions of the ANS?
The division of the autonomic nervous system responsible for each of the reflexes is the ciliospinal reflex. Ciliospinal reflex responds mainly by the 2nd and 3rd order nerves to the muscle of the iris.

Which systems act on the same organs but in opposite ways?
The Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) regulates the action of smooth muscles, cardiac muscle, and some glands.In other words, the ANS regulates involuntary (automatic; unconscious) actions.There are two major divisions of the ANS. The parasympathetic division functions under normal conditions (to maintain homeostasis), and the sympathetic division of the ANS functions under stress.Some times the sympathetic divison is called the "Fight or Flight" response and the parasympathetic division is called the "Rest and Repose {turkey dinner syndrome)" response.
Name division of autonomic nervous system that is affected by anesthesia?
The division of autonomic nervous system (ANS) that is affected by anethesia is parasympathetic nervous system (PNS).3
Which division of the ANS has its terminal ganglia near or in the wall of the innervated organ?
parasympathetic component of vagus n. (CN X)
Why does the sympathetic division of the ANS have a more widespread and longer lasting effects than the parasympathetic division?
That may seem possible from illustrations, but in actuality the role of homeostasis is to have both systems functioning equally to maintain balance in the body systems. 1. After parasympathetic fibers secret acytelcholine it is quickly broken down by acytelcholinesterase, which makes parasympathetic effects only a few seconds long.

Which ANS subdivision is involved when you are eating potato chips?
parasympathetic
What role do the parasympathetic division of the ans play in digestion?
The parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system stimulates digestion. It activates salivation, which functions in digestion as the beginning of breaking the food down. It also stimulates the gall bladder to release bile for digestion. Digestion in the small intestine is increased and gastric juice in the stomach is secreted.
What are the two divisions of the ANS?
ANS innervation is divided into sympathetic nervous system and parasympathetic nervous system divisions.
What are the divisions of the ANS?
The division of the autonomic nervous system responsible for each of the reflexes is the ciliospinal reflex. Ciliospinal reflex responds mainly by the 2nd and 3rd order nerves to the muscle of the iris.
