In parasympathetic reflex arc the preganglionic nerve fibre is longer than post ganglionic fibre, that is the synapse occur near the organ or tissue. While in sympathetic reflex arc both the pre and post have moderate sizes. The postganglionic fibre of parasympathetic always secrete acetylcholine as nuerotransmitter while postganglionic fibre of sympatheic reflex arc mostly secrete norepinephrine or epinephrine as nuerotransmitter. Some nerve fibres may secrete acetylcholine. For example postganglionic sympatehtic nerve fibres of sweat glands, pilorectal muscles and few blood vessels

What does the parasympathetic nervous system stimulate in the micturition reflex?
The parasympathetic nervous system allows the act of micturition. The sympathetic nervous system inhibits it.
Pupillary light reflex somatic or autonomic?
The pupillary light reflex is an autonomic response controlled by the parasympathetic and sympathetic branches of the autonomic nervous system. When light is detected by the retina, signals are sent to the brainstem to constrict the pupil (parasympathetic activation) or dilate the pupil (sympathetic activation) depending on the intensity of the light.
How is pupil reflex controlled?
The pupil reflex is controlled by the autonomic nervous system, specifically the parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions. Constriction of the pupil (miosis) is controlled by the parasympathetic system through the action of the cranial nerve III (oculomotor nerve). Dilation of the pupil (mydriasis) is controlled by the sympathetic system through the action of the superior cervical ganglion.
What are the divisions of the ANS?
The division of the autonomic nervous system responsible for each of the reflexes is the ciliospinal reflex. Ciliospinal reflex responds mainly by the 2nd and 3rd order nerves to the muscle of the iris.
Is pupillary light reflex a monosynaptic or polysynaptic reflex?
The pupillary light reflex is a polysynaptic reflex. When light is sensed by the retina, a signal is sent via the optic nerve to the pretectal nuclei in the midbrain, which then sends signals to both the parasympathetic and sympathetic pathways controlling the muscles of the iris to constrict or dilate the pupil appropriately.
Where could a support group for those with reflex sympathetic dystrophy be found?
"To find a support group for those with reflex sympathetic dystrophy, you can try the Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Syndrome Association, where they can help you fully."
What best demonstrates an example of cooperation of the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems?
The best example of cooperative autonomic effects is seen in controls of the external genitalia. Parasympathetic stimulation causes vasodilation of blood vessels in the external genitalia, and is responsible for erection of the male penis or female clitoris during sexual excitement. Sympathetic stimulation then causes the ejaculation of semen by the penis or reflex contractions of the vagina during an orgasm.
Is the ciliospinal reflex sympathetic?
yes
Is the pupillary light reflex sympathetic?
While pupillary size in principle is controlled both by the sympathetic and the parasympathic nervous system, the typical closure of the pupil after illumination (i.e. the pupillary light reflex) is mediated by the parasympathetic innervation of the constrictor muscle of the pupil.
What are the subsystems of the autonomic nervous system?
The autonomic nervous system consists of the sympathetic nervous system, which prepares the body for fight or flight responses, and the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes rest and digestion.
What division of the autonomic nervous system mediates the reflex release of saliva?
The parasympathetic nervous system stimulates salivary gland secretion, and accelerates peristalsis, so, in keeping with the rest and digest functions, appropriate PNS activity mediates digestion of food and indirectly, the absorption of nutrients.

What parts of the body does reflex sympathetic dystrophy affect?
"Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy usually affects the skin and blood vessles. However, it can easily affect any part of the body."
