No Shamus in your Ramus
Did you remember your trunks?
Parasympathy
Neurotransmitter time
100

This trauma response is when you try to remove yourself from a situation

Flight

100

This nerve category is where all motor outputs of the spine pass through

White ramus

100

What is the name of the ganglion chain next to the spine in the SNS?

Sympathetic trunk

100

Name three organs that the Vagus nerve (X) connects to in the PNS.

One of: heart, lungs, liver, stomach, intestines, kidney

100

Cholinergic relates to which neurotransmitter?

Acetylcholine

200

This trauma response is when flight is not an option

Fight

200

This nerve category sends post-ganglionic sympathetic fibers to peripheral targets

Gray ramus

200

What is the highest vertebral exit for the SNS?

T1

200

The PNS exits the sacral spine and immediately enters what nerves?

Pelvic splanchnic nerves

200

Adrenergic relates to which two neurotransmitters?

E and NE

300

This trauma type is when the body shuts down when you can't run or attack

What are the three targets of gray rami in the periphery?

Sweat glands, goose bumps/skin, and peripheral blood vessels

500

Which neurotransmitter do postganglionic neurons use?

Norepinephrine

500

What two substances are released by the pterygopalatine ganglion?

Tears and nasal mucus (snot)

500

Smooth muscles, your iris, and gut muscle contains these receptor types
