What else can I help you with?
What nerve do the preganglionic fibers travel through?
The preganglionic fibers of the autonomic nervous system travel through the cranial nerves (in the head) and the spinal nerves (in the rest of the body). They synapse with postganglionic neurons in autonomic ganglia before reaching their target organs.
Dendrites and cell bodies of sympathetic preganglionic neurons are located in the?
Dendrites and cell bodies of sympathetic preganglionic neurons are located in the lateral horn of the spinal cord gray matter, specifically in the intermediolateral cell column (IML) between T1 and L2 segments.
Does chain ganglion contain soma from sensory neurons?
No, the chain ganglion contains cell bodies (soma) of autonomic motor neurons, not sensory neurons. Sensory neurons have their cell bodies located in the dorsal root ganglion outside the spinal cord.
Is the sympathetic division described as thoracolumbar?
Yes, the sympathetic division is often described as thoracolumbar because its preganglionic neurons originate from the thoracic and lumbar regions of the spinal cord. This division is responsible for the "fight or flight" response in the body.
Where do sympathetic fibers originate?
The sympathetic motor neurons come from the thoracic through the lumbar region of the spinal cord.
What nerve do the preganglionic fibers travel through?
The preganglionic fibers of the autonomic nervous system travel through the cranial nerves (in the head) and the spinal nerves (in the rest of the body). They synapse with postganglionic neurons in autonomic ganglia before reaching their target organs.
What nerve carries autonomic signals away from the cns is classified as?
The nerve that carries autonomic signals away from the central nervous system is classified as the preganglionic nerve. These nerves originate from the brain or spinal cord and synapse with postganglionic neurons in autonomic ganglia.
Anterior root of the spinal cord is composed of?
The anterior root is composed of nerve fibers responsible for motor activity (i.e. efferent nerve fibers that will stimulate muscles, etc.). I think some of the things it is composed of include:Gamma motor neurons, alpha motor neurons, preganglionic autonomic neurons
How do autonomic nervous system reflex arcs work?
ANS reflex arcs are stimulated by input from sensory or visceral receptors. The signals are processed in the hypothalamus (or regions of the spinal cord) and target effector control is then regulated via myelinated preganglionic neurons
Dendrites and cell bodies of sympathetic preganglionic neurons are located in the?
Dendrites and cell bodies of sympathetic preganglionic neurons are located in the lateral horn of the spinal cord gray matter, specifically in the intermediolateral cell column (IML) between T1 and L2 segments.
Does the white rami communicans contain fibers of a preganglionic or postganglionic neurons?
Preganglionic because they are myelinated. FALSE
Does chain ganglion contain soma from sensory neurons?
No, the chain ganglion contains cell bodies (soma) of autonomic motor neurons, not sensory neurons. Sensory neurons have their cell bodies located in the dorsal root ganglion outside the spinal cord.
What is the function of the ventral root of a spinal nerve?
The ventral root of a spinal nerve contains efferent motor neurons that carry signals away from the spinal cord to muscles and glands in the body. These motor neurons control voluntary movements and autonomic functions.
Nerve fibers in what division of the autonomic nervous system arise from the brainstem and the sacral region of the spinal cord?
Brain
Most of the neurons in the brain and spinal cord are?
most of the neurons in the brain and spinal cord are
Where do sympathetic fibers originate?
