in the intermediolateral nucleus (IML) of T1-L2
235
what is the IML
Intermediolateral nucleus. group of cell bodies in the lateral horn of the spinal cord
236
paravertebral ganglia are part of what
the sympathetic chain (seen in lab, next to the vertebral column)
237
paravertebral and prevertebral are PSNS or SNS
SNS
238
where do prevertebral ganglia sit
in front of the vertebral bodies
239
what nerve innerates viscera
splanchnic nerves
240
what nerve innervates viscera
splanchnic nerves
241
splanchnic nerves pass through what and synpase where
pass through the PARAvertebral ganglia and synpase in the PREvertebral ganglia
242
what are rami communicantes
connecting branches b/w the spinal nerve and sympathetic chain
243
what are white rami
lateral, pregang -> myelinated
244
what are grey rami
medial, postgang -> unmyelinated Rejoining the spinal nerve SNS
245
what are the 3 pathways pregang axons from the IML travel through the white rami into the sympathetic chain and they can:
1. synapse RIGHT AWAY 2. Ascend OR descend to another vertebral level ganglia to synapse 3. Exit without synapsing at all (splanchnic) still pregang and myelinated
246
where do splanchnic nerves leave and synapse
pre-gang fibers leave the sympathetic chain and synapse in the abdominal prevertebral ganglia
247

1: cranial nerve IX 2: otic
250
PSNS Cranial portion: Dorsal Nucleus of Vagus - where are cell bodies 1 and 2 found
1: cranial nerve X 2: mostly intramural ganglia (cluster)
251
PSNS Sacral portion: where are cell bodies 1 and 2 found
1: in IML of S2-S4 2: mostly in intramural ganglia (cluster)
252
what are the 3 plexi in the thorax
cardiac plexus pulmonary plexus esophageal plexus dont care about esophageal and cardiac and pulm are the same just different locations
253
Location of cardiac plexus
superior mediastinum -> 2 regions 1. superficial cardiac plexus : concavity of the aortic arch 2. Deep cardiac plexus : b/w the aortic arch and trachea. Sits in front of bifurcation of trachea
254
location of superficial cardiac plexus
concavity of the aortic arch
255
location of deep cardiac plexus
b/w the aortic arch and trachea
256
cardiac plexus consists of
PREgang PSNS fibers from CN X POSTgang SNS fibers from cardiac nerves (cardiopulmonary splanchnics)
257
sympathetic contribution to the cardiac plexus: cell body #1 begins ____
in the IML of T1-T6 axons leave through the ventral root of the same segment, enter the sympathetic chain via white rami to synapse with cell body #2
258
sympathetic contribution to the cardiac plexus: cell body #2 4 possible locations:
1. superior cervical ganglia 2. middle cervical ganglia 3. inferior cervical ganglia 4. T1-T4 thoracic sympathetic ganglia
259
sympathetic contribution to the cardiac plexus: the axon of cell body #2 is called a
cardiac nerve -> name based on the ganglia it came from
260
sympathetic contribution to the cardiac plexus: cell body #2 -> cardiac nerves (4)
1. superior sympathetic cardiac nerve 2. middle sympathetic cardiac nerve 3. inferior sympathetic cardiac nerve 4. T1-T4 cardiac nerves
261
Parasympathetic contribution to the cardiac plexus: supplied by which 2 nerves
Vagus nerve and recurrent laryngeal nerve (vagus nerve usually means intramural ganglia)
262
Parasympathetic contribution to the cardiac plexus: where are cell bodies 1 and 2 located
1: dorsal nucleus of vagus (pregang) 2: located in wall of viscera (postgang)
263
is the ANS necessary for life?
NO!
264
heart transplant main idea
easier to run a marathon than a 5k -> can regenerate autonomic fibers and can still respond to humoral factors (catecholamines)
265
what do the SA and AV nodes do?
conduction system of the heart. Intrinsic system controlled by specialize myocardial cells
266
can SNS innervate SA and AV nodes?
Yes
267
Pulmonary Plexus consists of 2 groups:
Anterior pulmonary plexus (ant. root of lung) Posterior pulmonary plexus (post. root of lung)
268
where is the pulmonary plexus continues with the cardiac plexus?
at the tracheal bifurcation and continues on to communicate with the esophageal plexus on the aorta and the anterior surface of the esophagus. It enters the abdomen through the esophageal hiatus
269
Pulmonary plexus PSNS: is supplied by what nerve
