  1. The ______nervous system has short preganglionic neuron and long postganglionic neurons.
  1. The ______nervous system possesses preganglionic fibers that synapse within ganglia near the visceral effector tissues.
  1. ______ganglia lie in a vertical row on either side of the vertebral column from the base of the skull to the coccyx.
  1. The cranial outflow of the parasympathetic nervous system includes: ______, ______, ______and ______.
  1. The ______nerve innervates the parotid gland and synapses within the ______ganglia.
  1. There are two ganglia associated with the ______nerve: the ______ganglion innervates the nasal mucosa and lacrimal gland while the ______ganglion extends to the salivary glands near the tongue.
  1. Cranial nerve # ______synapses within the ______ganglia found in the eye orbits and is responsible for innervating the smooth muscles of the eye causing pupil constriction.
  1. The ______nerve has many ganglia that are located near the visceral organs that they innervate. Each does not have a specific name, instead they are collectively called ______ganglia.
  1. Sacral outflow fibers of the parasympathetic nervous system issue from the lateral region of the spinal cord and form the pelvic ______nerves.
  1. Preganglionic neurons of the sympathetic nervous system extend from the ______and ______regions of the spinal cord.
  1. Preganglionic neurons enter the sympathetic trunk through ______rami communicans while postganglionic neurons leave the sympathetic trunk through ______rami communicans.
  1. Ganglia within the sympathetic trunk are called ______ganglia.
  1. Splanchnic nerves synapse in ______ganglia which lie outside the sympathetic trunk.
  1. The splanchnic nerve that does not synapse within a ganglion before contacting the effector cells innervates the ______.
