Which component of the ans is characterized by ganglia located in or near effector organs?
The component of the autonomic nervous system characterized by ganglia located in or near effector organs is the parasympathetic nervous system. This system is responsible for promoting "rest-and-digest" functions, facilitating processes like digestion and energy conservation. The ganglia in the parasympathetic system are typically situated close to or within the organs they innervate, allowing for localized control.
Collection of nerve cell bodies found outside CNS?
In the peripheral nervous system, which is outside the central nervous system (CNS), collections of nerve cell bodies are called ganglia.
What is the other name for parasympathetic ganglia due to its location?
terminal ganglia now quit cheating and read the book!!
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 spinal and cranial nerves ganglia?
Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) original answer by btbchris
What is a ganglion and where is it found?
A ganglion is a cluster of neuron cell bodies located in the peripheral nervous system. It serves as a relay point for transmitting nerve signals and is involved in various autonomic and sensory functions. Ganglia can be found in various parts of the body, including near the spinal cord (dorsal root ganglia) and within the autonomic nervous system (sympathetic and parasympathetic ganglia).
What system of the peripheral nervous system is further divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions?
The parasympathetic and sympathetic systems are branches of the autonomic nervous system.
What are the two categories of nerves belonging to the peripheral nervous system?
The peripheral nervous system is the nervous system outside of the brain and spinal cord. The two categories belonging to the peripheral nervous system are nerves and ganglia.
Are ganglia part of the central nervous system?
Yes, the PNS contains ganglia, cranial nerves, and spinal nerves.
Small groups of nerves outside the brain and spinal cord?
Peripheral nerves.
The two anatomical divisions of the nervous system are the?
Central and Peripheral nervous system.. further divided into sensory, motor and autonomic(sympathetic and parasympathetic)
Which peripheral nervous system that activates the body while the parasympathetic nervous system restores normal functioning?
sympathetic nervous system
