Chapter 15.2, Problem 1AYLO
Summary Introduction
To discuss:
Origin of the sympathetic preganglionic fibers and the routes they take to the sympathetic chain ganglia.
Introduction:
Ganglions are the collection of nerve fibers that form a nodal center hub to integrate the nerve endings. These ganglions use to be sympathetic or parasympathetic based on the nerve endings they receive and innervate the target organs. Ganglions are the outcome of nearly 20,000 to 30,000 nerve cell bodies, and they are very close to on adjacent sides of the spinal cord.
