Notes: 4 possible routes of
sympathetic nerve after entering
corresponding sympathetic chain
ganglion (paravertebral ganglion):
1. synapse & come out at the
same level in Grey RC to
accompany corresponding spinal
nerve
2. Come out without synapse &
synapse in collateral (prevertebral)
ganglion outside sympathetic
chain ganglion
3. Go up inside sympathetic chain
& synapse in cervical ganglia
before coming out
4. Go down inside sympathetic
chain & synapse below L2 before
coming out

41. EOLA
1. Which of the types of autonomic fibers release acetylcholine (Ach)?
2. Would a drug that interferes with Ach action at nicotinic receptors block the
influence of the parasympathetic nervous system, the sympathetic nervous
system, or both, at effector organs? How about for a drug that interferes with
Ach action at muscarinic receptors?
3. Name some organs that are innervated only by sympathetic nerves and not by
the parasympathetic nerves
4. In which organs actions of sympathetic and parasympathetic activity are not
antagonistic?
Answers:
1.All preganglionic , parasympathetic postganglionic, a few postganglionic
sympathetic e.g Sweat glands
2.Both, It will block only parasympathetic actions
3.Blood vessels (most arterioles and veins), Sweat glands
4.Salivary glands
