Although the autonomic nervous system's impulses originate in the central nervous system, it performs the most basic human functions more or less automatically, without conscious intervention of higher brain centers. Because it is linked to those centers, however, the autonomic system is influenced by the emotions; for example, anger can increase the rate of heartbeat. All of the fibers of the autonomic nervous system are motor channels, and their impulses arise from the nerve tissue itself, so that the organs they innervate perform more or less involuntarily and do not require stimulation to function. Autonomic nerve fibers exit from the central nervous system as part of other peripheral nerves but branch from them to form two more subsystems: the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, the actions of which usually oppose each other. For example, sympathetic nerves cause arteries to contract while parasympathetic nerves cause them to dilate. Sympathetic impulses are conducted to the organs by two or more neurons. The cell body of the first lies within the central nervous system and that of the second in an external ganglion. Eighteen pairs of such ganglia interconnect by nerve fibers to form a double chain just outside the spine and running parallel to it. Parasympathetic impulses are also relayed by at least two neurons, but the cell body of the second generally lies near or within the target organ.

There are two divisions of the autonomic nervous system. The sympathetic system responds to stress, when it speeds the heart rate, increases blood pressure, and generally prepares the body for action. The parasympathetic system is more important when the body is at rest, since it slows the heart rate, decreases blood pressure, and stimulates the digestive system. At all times, both types of autonomic nerves carry signals that bring about adjustments in visceral organs. The actual rate of heartbeat is the net outcome of opposing signals.

52. Autonomic Nervous System The autonomic nervous system. by David L. Atkins, Prof. Autonomic axons leavingthe central nervous system are preganglionic (= presynaptic). http://sky.bsd.uchicago.edu/lcy_ref/synap/autonomic.html

A UTONOMIC processing and innervation directs many of the homeostatic functions necessary for basic life processes. All autonomic nerves are motor. I repeat: ALL autonomic nerves are motor. Targets include the pacemaker of the heart, and the smooth muscle and glands of viscera. There are three major subdivisions of the ANS. The sympathetic division acts occasionally in response to emergencies. The parasympathetic division is composed of many independent subsets of nerves that individually activate portions of parasympathetic innervation. Finally, the enteric nervous system is a large but diffuse number of neurons dispersed throughout the muscular walls of hollow viscera. Enteric neurons receive input from the parasympathetic and sympathetic, but largely this network is independent of the CNS. The Autonomic Nervous System by David L. Atkins, Prof. of Biology Washington, DC A LTHOUGH the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems are largely antagonistic in their action, they share anatomical generalities. Autonomic axons leaving the central nervous system are preganglionic (= pre-synaptic). Generally, the pre- to post-synaptic neuron ratio is very high, so that one preganglionic fiber will excite (or inhibit) very many postganglionic neurons...sometimes as many as 8000. In this way a simple instruction can be spread economically to a large number of effectors. These are the only ganglionic synapses in the nervous system. The two systems function below conscious levels, although their action may be quite obvious to that person. NowClick below to explore these two subsystems in detail.

Same day setup. Please Take our User Survey The central nervous system controls almost all voluntary activities of the animal. The autonomic nervous system controls automatic activities which are free of will ( involuntary such as heart beat, breathing, peristalsis etc.) Thus, this system deals with the internal environment of the body (homeostasis). The autonomic nervous system is connected with the central nervous system and is divided into two parts. (1) Sympathetic nervous system and (2) Parasympathetic nervous system. The main structural and functional similarities and differences are given in the following table. Sympathetic Nervous System Parasympathetic Nervous System Contains nerve fibers on which there is no voluntary control. (Involuntary nerve fibers.)
