Question
Chapter 15, Problem 13DYKB
Summary Introduction
To contrast and compare:
The parasympathetic and sympathetic postganglionic axons. Also, examine the length of the axon, myelination and the neurotransmitter involved.
Concept introduction:
ANS consists of both, the sensory and motor components. The motor component of the ANS is divided further into the sympathetic division and the parasympathetic division. Myelination means the presence of myelin sheath in the axon of a neuron.
