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.

It is said that central nervous system and enteric nervous system contain 1 billion neurons each.
What process does the parasympathetic nervous system not stimulate?
The parasympathetic nervous system does not stimulate the fight or flight response.
What is the location of the vesicles that store neurotransmitter?
Synapses are located throughout the nervous system. A synapse is a sort of 'relay station' where a message, in the form a a chemical neurotransmitter, is passed on between one neuron (nerve fibre) & the next, or between a neuron & the muscle or gland the message is aimed at.
Sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system's are subdivisions of what nervous system?
