Chapter 15, Problem 8WWTS
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The autonomic nervous system consists of two divisions namely sympathetic and parasympathetic systems. Both the systems work on synergistic and antagonistic effects on target organs. This nervous coordination is brought out by the nerve fibers and its neurotransmitters. Sympathetic division controls the involuntary actions of physiology at the time of fight and flight. The parasympathetic controls the physiology at rest and digest.

Explain why the sympathetic division is also called thethoracolumbar division even though its paravertebral ganglia extend all the way from the cervical to the sacral region.
Describe the sympathetic response in a frightening situationfor each of the following body parts: hair follicles, iris of eye,lungs, spleen, adrenal medullae, urinary bladder, stomach,intestines, gallbladder, liver, heart, arterioles of the abdominalviscera, and arterioles of skeletal muscles.
List examples of sympathetic and parasympathetic effects.
