Dear colleagues, I am currently studying the ANS. I find it boring and full of details. Need help going about it, and what stuff is really important to remember! Would appreciate your comments and advice Ima

Ill give 3 or 4 points I Its a general visceral motor system that controsls smooth muscle , cardiac muscle, and glands II--3 divisions Sympathetic ( flight or flight response) Parasympathetic (Think of this as housekeeping) Enteric includes the submucosal and myenteric plexus III Acetylcholine is the preganglionic neurotransmitter. NE is the post- ganglionic neurotransmitter ( except sweat glands and some bv) Dopamine is neuro transmitter of fluorescent cells in the symp. ganglia

Do not forget that like the sweat glands the adrenal glands use ACh and is preganglionic in simpathetic system The Parasympathetic has the largest preGang fiber and the shortest post Gang, the sympathetic syetem viceversa
