- hypothalamus
- brainstem
- spinal cord
Which division of the ANS functions to maintain homeostasis during times of stress?
sympathetic division
Which of the following works constantly with the somatic nervous system to regulate body organs and maintain normal internal functions?
autonomic nervous system
Which motor division regulates heart rate?
autonomic
The division of the autonomic nervous system that is anatomically known as the thoracolumbar division is the _____ division.
sympathetic
The subdivisions of the autonomic nervous system are the _______ division and sympathetic division
parasympathetic
The preganglionic neurons of the parasympathetic division originate in the ______.
brainstem
lateral gray matter of S2-S4
Somatic and autonomic are divisions of the ______ nervous system.
motor
The sympathetic division of the ANS is also called the ______ division.
thoracolumbar
Autonomic nervous system functions are regulated by the hypothalamus, which controls autonomic nervous system regions in the ______.
brainstem and spinal cord
During times of relaxation, the ______ division of the autonomic nervous system utilizes discrete and localized innervation, stimulating only one or a few structures at the same time.
parasympathetic
Where do the preganglionic neurons of the sympathetic division originate in the CNS?
lateral horns of T1-L2
The ______ division of the autonomic nervous system is also called the craniosacral division because of the location of its preganglionic neurons.
parasympathetic
Which of the following works constantly with the somatic nervous system to regulate body organs and maintain normal internal functions?
autonomic nervous system
Which cranial nerves are associated with the parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system?
- facial (CN VII)
- vagus (CN X)
- oculomotor (CN III)
The location of preganglionic neurons in the parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system allows it to be also known as the ______ division.
craniosacral
Parasympathetic innervation to the ciliary muscle results in ______ ______, which makes the lens more rounded to allow for close vision.
lens accommodation
Which autonomic ganglion provides postganglionic axons to the lacrimal glands and small glands of the nasal cavity, oral cavity, and palate?
pterygopalatine ganglion
Parasympathetic innervation of which muscles results in lens accommodation?
CILIARY MUSCLE
The ganglion that supplies postganglionic parasympathetic innervation to the submandibular and sublingual salivary glands to increase their secretions is the ganglion.
submandibular
Parasympathetic innervation from the postganglionic axons of the pterygopalatine ganglion causes the lacrimal glands and small glands of the nasal cavity, oral cavity, and palate to ______.
increase secretion
Which gland receives parasympathetic innervation from the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX)?
parotid salivary gland
The otic ganglion receives parasympathetic axons from which cranial nerve?
glossopharyngeal (CN IX)
Which division of the autonomic nervous system exhibits a mass activation response during stressful situations, stimulating all innervated components at once?
sympathetic division

vagus nerve (CN X)
A sympathetic trunk looks like a pearl necklace, with bundles of axons making up the "string" and sympathetic trunk making up the "pearls".
