This is Part 1 of Professor Fink's Autonomic Nervous System Lecture. This Video Lecture introduces the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS), describing the functional anatomy of the Parasympathetic (Cranio-Sacral) Division and then the Sympathetic (Thoraco-Lumbar) Division. Professor Fink then COMPARES & CONTRASTS the autonomic neural innervation of the visceral organs with the somatic motorneuron innervation of the Skeletal Muscles. Reference is made to Dual Innervation, Rest & Digest State, Stress State, fight, flight & freight, Automaticity, Myogenic, Neurogenic, Acetylcholine (ACh), cholinergic nerve fibers, Norepineprhine (Norepi), adrenergic nerve fibers, muscarinic & nicotinic Cholinergic Receptor Sites, and Adrenergic Receptor Sites. In addition, Professor Fink defines the terms ganglion, preganglionic, postganglionic, and identifies which Cranial Nerves contain parasympathetic (preganglionic) autonomic
nerve fibers [the Oculomotor (III); the Facial (VII), the Glossopharyngeal (IX) and the VAGUS (X)] and which spinal nerves contain sympathetic (preganglionic) autonomic nerve fibers.
