FUNCTIONAL ORGANIZATION OF THE PNS
![Page 5: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord- sensory and motor connections to the outside world - nerves thread throughout the body to allow the CNS to receive information and take action
Functional components of the PNS- sensory inputs and motor outputs- categorized as somatic or visceral- also classified as general or special
![Page 6: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
FUNCTIONAL COMPONENTS OF THE PNS
Basic structural components:1. Sensory receptors – pick up stimuli from inside
and outside the body, then initiate impulses in sensory axons
2. Motor endings – the axon terminals of motor neurons that innervate the effectors
3. Nerves – bundles of peripheral axons and Ganglia - clusters of peripheral neuronal cell bodies- most are mixed nerves, contain both sensory and motor axons - some cranial nerves are purely sensory or purely motor in function

AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
The autonomic nervous system is the subdivision of the peripheral nervous system that regulates body activities that are generally not under conscious control
General visceral motor part of the PNS
Has 2 divisions (with opposite effects):- Parasympathetic: ‘housekeeping’ activities (rest and digest)- Sympathetic: extreme situations (fight or flight)
![Page 17: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

ANS is the subdivision of the peripheral nervous system that regulates body activities that are generally not under conscious control
Visceral motor innervates non-skeletal (non-somatic) muscles
Composed of a special group of neurons serving: Cardiac muscle (the heart)Smooth muscle (walls of viscera and blood vessels) Internal organsSkin
![Page 18: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Basic anatomical difference between the motor pathways of the voluntary somatic nervous system (to skeletal muscles) and those of the autonomic nervous system
Somatic division:Cell bodies of motor neurons reside in CNS
(brain or spinal cord)Their axons (sheathed in spinal nerves) extend
all the way to their skeletal muscles Autonomic system: chains of two motor
neurons1st = preganglionic neuron (in brain or cord)2nd = gangionic neuron (cell body in ganglion
outside CNS)Slower because lightly or unmyelinated
(see next diagram)
![Page 19: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Axon of 1st (preganglionic) neuron leaves CNS to synapse with the 2nd (ganglionic) neuron
Axon of 2nd (ganglionic) neuron extends to the organ it serves
Diagram contrasts somatic (lower) and autonomic:

somatic
Note: the autonomic ganglion is motor
this dorsal root ganglion is sensory

DIVISIONS OF THE AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM (VISCERAL MOTOR PART OF IT)
Parasympathetic division Sympathetic division
![Page 21: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21
DIVISIONS OF THE AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
Parasympathetic division Sympathetic division
Serve most of the same organs but cause opposing or antagonistic effects
Parasysmpathetic: routine maintenance“rest &digest”
Sympathetic: mobilization & increased metabolism “fight, flight or fright” or “fight, flight
or freeze”
![Page 22: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

WHERE THEY COME FROM
Parasympathetic/Craniosacral:Cervical (neck area)Caudal(tailbone)Brain(cranial nerves)
Sympathetic/thoracolumbar:Thoracicand LumbarVertebrae
![Page 23: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
23
PARASYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM“REST & DIGEST”
Also called the craniosacral system because all its preganglionic neurons are in the brain stem or sacral levels of the spinal cord Cranial nerves III,VII, IX and X In lateral horn of gray matter from S2-S4
Only innervate internal organs (not skin) Acetylcholine is neurotransmitter at end organ
as well as at preganglionic synapse: “cholinergic”
![Page 24: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24
PARASYMPATHETIC CONTINUED Cranial outflow
III - pupils constrictVII - tears, nasal mucus, saliva IX – parotid salivary glandX (Vagus n) – visceral organs of thorax & abdomen:
Stimulates digestive glands Increases motility of smooth muscle of digestive tract Decreases heart rate Causes bronchial constriction
Sacral outflow (S2-4): form pelvic splanchnic nervesSupply 2nd half of large intestineSupply all the pelvic (genitourinary) organs

PARASYMPATHETIC
(only look at this if it helps you)
![Page 26: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM“FIGHT, FLIGHT OR FRIGHT”
Also called thoracolumbar system: all its neurons are in lateral horn of gray matter from T1-L2
Lead to every part of the body (unlike parasymp.) Easy to remember that when nervous, you sweat; when
afraid, hair stands on end; when excited blood pressure rises (vasoconstriction): these sympathetic only
Also causes: dry mouth, pupils to dilate, increased heart & respiratory rates to increase O2 to skeletal muscles, and liver to release glucose
Norepinephrine (aka noradrenaline) is neurotransmitter released by most postganglionic fibers (acetylcholine in preganglionic): “adrenergic”
![Page 27: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM CONTINUED
Regardless of target, all begin same
Preganglionic axons exit spinal cord through ventral root and enter spinal nerve
Exit spinal nerve via communicating ramus
Enter sympathetic trunk/chain where postganglionic neurons are
Has three options…
![Page 28: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28
OPTIONS OF PREGANGLIONIC AXONS IN SYMPATHETIC TRUNK
1. Synapse on postganglionic neuron in chain ganglion then return to spinal nerve and follow its branch to the skin
2. Ascend or descend within sympathetic trunk, synapse with a posganglionic neuron within a chain ganglion, and return to spinal nerve at that level and follow branches to skin
3. Enter sympathetic chain, pass through without synapsing, form a splanchnic nerve that passes toward thoracic or abdominal organs
These synapse in prevertebral ganglion in front of aorta
Postganglionic axons follow arteries to organs
(see next slides for drawing examples)

SENSORY RECEPTORS OF THE PNS
![Page 36: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
SENSORY RECEPTORS OF THE PNS
Also classified according to:
a) Location – based on body location or location of stimuli to which they respond
b) Type of stimulus detected – kinds of stimuli that most readily activate them
c) Structure – divided into 2 broad categories free or encapsulated nerve endings
![Page 37: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
CLASSIFICATION BY LOCATION
Exteroceptors – sensitive to stimuli arising from outside the body- located at or near body surfaces- include receptors for touch, pressure, pain, temperature, and most receptors of the special sense organs
Interoceptors (visceroceptors) – receive stimuli from internal viscera (digestive tube, bladder, lungs)- monitor a variety of stimuli such as changes in chemical concentration, taste stimuli, stretching of tissues, and temperature- activation causes visceral pain, nausea, hunger, or satiety
![Page 38: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
CLASSIFICATION BY LOCATION
Proprioceptors – monitors degree of stretch and sends input on body movements to the CNS- located in musculoskeletal organs such as skeletal muscles, tendons, joints, and ligaments
![Page 39: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
CLASSIFICATION BY STIMULUS DETECTED Mechanoreceptors – respond to mechanical forces
- such as touch, pressure, stretch, vibrations, and itch
Thermoreceptors – respond to temperature changes
Chemoreceptors – respond to chemicals in solution (molecules tasted or smelled) and to change in blood chemistry
Photoreceptors in the eye – respond to light
Nociceptors – respond to harmful stimuli that result in pain (noci = harm)
![Page 40: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
CLASSIFICATION BY STRUCTURE
General sensory receptors – widely distributed
Nerve endings of sensory neurons moniter:- Touch- Pressure- Vibration- Stretch- Pain- Temperture- Proprioception
![Page 41: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
CLASSIFICATION BY STRUCTURE
General sensory receptors are divided into 2 groups- Free nerve endings- Encapsulated nerve endings
Note: there is no perfect ‘one receptor – one function’- one receptor can respond to several kinds of stimuli and different receptor types can respond to similar stimuli
![Page 42: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
FREE NERVE ENDINGS
Abundant in epithelia and underlying CT
Respond to pain and temperature
Monitor affective senses – those to which people have an emotional response (pain)
2 specialized types of free nerve endings:- Merkel discs: lie in the epidermis- Hair follicle receptors: wrap around hair follicles
![Page 43: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
FREE NERVE ENDINGS
Merkel discs – a disc-shaped epithelial cell innervated by a sensory nerve ending - slowly adapting receptors for light touch (respond and send out action potentials even after continual stimulation)
Hair follicle receptors – receptors for light touch- monitor the bending of hairs- rapidly adapting (sensation disappears quickly even if the stimulus is maintained)
Itch receptor – in the dermis (newly discovered)
![Page 44: F UNCTIONAL O RGANIZATION OF THE PNS Nervous structures outside the brain and spinal cord - sensory and motor connections to the outside world -](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48ac/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
