INTRODUCTION TO THE
AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
STEVEN J. ZEHREN, PH.D.
GENERAL REMARKS
ABOUT THE NERVOUS SYSTEM
STRUCTURAL DIVISIONS:
CNS AND PNS
CENTRAL AND PERIPHERAL
NERVOUS SYSTEMS
FUNCTIONAL DIVISIONS:
SOMATIC AND VISCERAL
NERVOUS SYSTEMS
SOMATIC & VISCERAL
NERVOUS SYSTEMS
AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
(= VISCERAL MOTOR SYSTEM)
CLASSIFICATION OF FIBER TYPES (FUNCTIONAL COMPONENTS)
IN CRANIAL* AND SPINAL NERVES
Somatic
(outer)
Afferent
(sensory)
General
(wide
distribution)
From skin — pain, temp., touch
From skeletal muscles & tendons,
ligs. of joints -- proprioception
Special
(restricted
distribution)
From retina – sight
From inner ear – hearing & equilibrium
General
From internal organs – visceral reflexes,
fullness of hollow organs, pain
Special
From taste buds – taste
From olfactory mucosa -- smell
General
To skeletal muscles not derived from
pharyngeal arches
Special
XXX – This category does not exist
General
To smooth muscle, cardiac muscle & glands
Special
To skeletal muscles derived from
pharyngeal arches
Visceral
(inner)
Somatic
Efferent
(motor)
Visceral
*Special components occur only in certain cranial nerves.

AREAS OF DISTRIBUTION
OF SYMPATHETIC VS.
PARASYMPATHETIC FIBERS
Sympathetic system reaches virtually all parts of the body
(with the rare exception of such avascular tissues as cartilage and nails).
Parasympathetic system distributes only to the head and neck, visceral cavities of the trunk,
and the erectile tissues of the external genitalia (with the exception of the latter, it does not
reach the body wall or limbs).
