What nerve innervates the large intestines?
The large intestine is primarily innervated by the autonomic nervous system, specifically the vagus nerve (cranial nerve X) for the proximal part, and by the pelvic splanchnic nerves (S2-S4) for the distal part. The vagus nerve supplies the cecum, ascending colon, and part of the transverse colon, while the pelvic splanchnic nerves innervate the descending colon, sigmoid colon, and rectum. Additionally, sensory fibers from the inferior mesenteric ganglion contribute to the innervation.
Which cranial nerve controls the heart and lungs?
CN X (Vagus)
What nerve is responsible for slowing the heart rate?
The Vagus Nerve (Number 10 or X)
Which nerve is responsible for innervations of the gallbladder?
Splanchnic nerve
Can vagus nerve be controlled by nerve meds?
can vegus nerve Can vagus nerve be controlled by nerve medicines
Is the vagus nerve sympathetic?
No. The vagus nerve is in the parasympathetic system
Is the vagus nerve sympathetic or parasympathetic?
The vagus nerve is parasympathetic.
Which nerve innervates the gallbladder?
The gallbladder is primarily innervated by the vagus nerve (cranial nerve X), which provides parasympathetic stimulation. Additionally, sympathetic innervation comes from the celiac plexus, particularly through the greater splanchnic nerve. This dual innervation helps regulate gallbladder contraction and bile release.
What cranial nerve slows the heart?
Nerve X, Vagus
What nerves innervate the heart?
vagus nerve and sympathetic fibers
Which nerves contain the most parasympathetic preganglionic fibers a trigeminal b splanchnic c optic d vagus?
D. vagus. this is the largest Cranial nerve, carrying parasympathetic information to much of the body (ie. esophagus, GI tract, heart). parasympathetic fibers, unlike sympathetic fibers, do not synapse until they are pretty much on in or near the organ. So the vagus is made up of preganglionic parasympathetics.trigeminal contains somatic afferents, and somatic efferents. neither of these are visceral efferents (which could be para or sympathetic).wikipedia tells you correctly that splanchnic nerves are generally sympathetic autonomics, except for one spot.optic nerve is carrying Afferent sensory information Away from the eye.
What number cranial nerve is the vagus nerve?
The vagus nerve is the 10th cranial nerve, also known as cranial nerve X.
