2 AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM Organization

3 Figure 14.1 Place of the ANS in the structural organization of the nervous system. Central nervous system (CNS) Peripheral nervous system (PNS) Sensory (afferent) division Motor (efferent) division Somatic nervous system Autonomic nervous system (ANS) Sympathetic division Parasympathetic division

4 AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM Comparison of Somatic and Autonomic Nervous Systems

5 AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM PARASYMPATHETIC SYMPATHETIC SOMATIC NERVOUS SYSTEM Figure 14.2 Comparison of somatic and autonomic nervous systems. Neuro- Cell bodies in central transmitter Effector nervous system Peripheral nervous system at effector organs Effect Single neuron from CNS to effector organs ACh Heavily myelinated axon Skeletal muscle Two-neuron chain from CNS to effector organs + Stimulatory ACh NE Unmyelinated Ganglion postganglionic axon Lightly myelinated Epinephrine and preganglionic axons norepinephrine ACh Lightly myelinated preganglionic axon Adrenal medulla ACh Ganglion Blood vessel Unmyelinated postganglionic axon ACh Smooth muscle (e.g., in gut), glands, cardiac muscle + Stimulatory or inhibitory, depending on neurotransmitter and receptors on effector organs Acetylcholine (ACh) Norepinephrine (NE)
