it can 1. synapse with a ganglionic neuron in the same trunk ganglion, 2. ascend or descend the sympathetic trunk to synapse in another trunk ganglion or 3. pass through the trunk ganglion and emerge from the sympathetic trunk without synapsing

The answer: Synapse with a parasympathetic neuron in the same trunk ganglion

Sympathetic nerves may leave the spinal cord at which vertebra?

Preganglionic sympathetic axons leave the spinal cord throughout the thoracic spine and the upper lumber spine (T1-L2).These preganglionic sympathetic axons exit the spinal canal within the anterior primary ramus and then quickly separate to travel via the white ramus communicans to the ipsilateral sympathetic trunk.


Do the sympathetic fibers leave the CNS at the thoracolumbar region?

Yes, sympathetic fibers leave the central nervous system at the thoracolumbar region, specifically from the intermediolateral cell column of the spinal cord. These fibers then form the sympathetic trunk and travel to the target organs to regulate the body's fight-or-flight response.


Which sympathetic fibers form the splanchnic nerve?

Sympathetic fibers that originate from the spinal cord levels T5-L2 form the splanchnic nerves. These fibers pass through the sympathetic chain ganglia without synapsing and project to the abdominal and pelvic viscera to regulate their functions.


What ramus branches that belong to the sympathetic nervous system?

The sympathetic nervous system branches include the sympathetic trunk and the splanchnic nerves. The sympathetic trunk contains the sympathetic ganglia, which are responsible for sending signals to various target organs in the body. The splanchnic nerves innervate the abdominal organs and play a role in regulating their function.


Gray rami communicantes connect to what two structures?

White rami communicantes (sing. ramus communicans) are literally white branches of communication between each spinal nerve and the sympathetic trunk. Their color is white because these lines of communication contain mainly myelinated nerve fibers of pre-ganglionic general visceral efferents from the spinal cord. Many of the pre-ganglionic nerve fibers synapse at the corresponding spinal segment level, and thus build a sympathetic ganglion at that level. Other pre-ganglionic white fibers either ascend or descend in the sympathetic trunk before synapsing in sympathetic ganglia above or below the spinal segment of origin. The sympathetic ganglia are literally knots in the sympathetic cord primarily containing cell bodies of the post-ganglionic neurons, whose axons are unmyelinated and gray in color. These unmyelinated post-ganglionic nerve fibers rejoin the spinal nerve at that level via the gray rami communicantes,as well as ascending or descending to adjacent levels. The white rami may also contain lightly myelinated sympathetic afferents whose cell bodies in the dorsal root ganglia synapse in the dorsal horn gray of the spinal cord. ANSWER: Carry preganglionic axons to the sympathetic chain


How does an elephant trunk help obtain food?

It reaches up to a tree and it brings down food, or reaches down and takes water; the trunk puts food in its mouth.


What is a knot-like swelling in a nerve where the cell bodies of neurons are concentrated?

Paravertbral ganglia (aka sympathetic trunk ganglia)


How to open a conv top for a Mercedes clk 430 manually?

To open a convertible top for a Mercedes CLK 430 manually, open the trunk. There is a switch located in the trunk if the driver's switch fails. The switch is located in the far reaches of the trunk next to where the top and the trunk meet.


Which structure is innervated only by the sympathetic division of the ANS?

The muscles of the ciliary body and dilator pupillae of the eye are innervated only by the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system.

What type of neuron is found in the dorsal root ganglion?

Sensory. Large diameter sensory neurons populate the medial division of the DRG and convey information regarding proprioception, localized touch, and vibration. In the lateral part of the DRG, small diameter sensory neurons conveying information about pain and temperature.


Do elephants drink out of their nose?

Elephants are known to use their trunk to suck up water and then spray it into their mouths to drink. They don't actually drink through their nose, but their trunk acts as a versatile tool for various activities, including drinking, bathing, and communication.
