The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system comprises three major components: the thoracolumbar outflow, which originates from the spinal cord segments T1 to L2; the sympathetic ganglia, which include the paravertebral and prevertebral ganglia where preganglionic neurons synapse with postganglionic neurons; and the neurotransmitters, primarily norepinephrine, released by postganglionic neurons to elicit the "fight or flight" response in various target organs. These components work together to prepare the body for stressful situations by increasing heart rate, dilating airways, and redirecting blood flow to essential muscles.

Vector may be resolved any number of components?

Vectros can come in any number of components when the component reflects a dimension. Vectors reflect dimensionality of the space. If the problem has three dimensions, three components are enough, two components are insufficient to handle the problem and 5 dimensions may be too much. Operations are also importnat, not just number of components. Only a few vector spaces provide division. if your problem needs division, 3 and 5 dimension vectors are not capable of division algebra. Only 1,2,4 dimension spaces have associative division algebras.

List the division of the autonomic nervous system?

The autonomic nervous system has two divisions: the sympathetic and the parasympathetic. The differences between the two divisions begins with an anatomical difference. The cell bodies of the sympathetic system reside in distinct ganglia (groupings of cells) that run along side the spinal column in what is called the sympathetic chain. Their preganglionic cell bodies are in the spinal column, exit in the rami communcantes then synapse in the sympathetic ganglia one, two or three spinal segments lower than their exit point from the spinal column. In contrast parasypathetic ganglia are not in distinct clusters and are found adjacent to their target tissues. There are also differences in the types of transmitters released. While all spinal autonomic neurons release Ach the post-spinal can release either epinephrine (sympathetic) or acetylcholine (ACh) (parasympathetic).
