Q

how does rubbing your arm after you bump into the wall make it hurt less?

A

it activates the large nerve fibers which inhibits pain, which then reduces small fiber pain input.

Q

what is the primary difference between the somatic and autonomic nervous systems?

A

the somatic nervous system has sensory and motor pathways while the autonomic only has motor pathways. the autonomic is involuntary movements while the somatic is voluntary. automic then has the parasympathetic and sympatheic nervous systems. autonomic has pre and post ganglionic neurons that connect to the central nervous system.
