sympathetic
sensory
somatic motor
parasympathetic

Homework Answers

Answer #1

Answer 1: SYMPATHETIC DIVISION

It is characterized by a synapse between the presynaptic and postsynaptic neuron in ganglia located near the spinal cord.

Somatic motor and sensory division has their ganglia in CNS.

Parasympathetic division ganglia is located near the effector organ.

Answer 2: PARASYMPATHETIC IMPULSES

Parasympathetic division has craniosacral outflow from spinal cord.

Sympathetic division has thoracolumbar outflow from spinal cord.

Sensory and motor nerves are just transmitted upward and downward respectively through the spinal cord.
