- What is the difference between SNS and PSNS? Include physiological function and neuronal structure.arrow_forwardYou're relaxed, watching television. Dinner is served - all that turkey, stuffing, potatoes, gravy, pumpkin, and more. You sit down to the table and start to dig in. As you begin to overindulge, the smooth muscle of your stomach starts to contract (intrinsic innervation) which is not part of the CNS. Your extrinsic innervation also starts to kick in - which is a CNS response of the Autonomic Nervous System. As you continue to eat the warm, moist delicious turkey, every time you swallow the smooth muscle of the stomach and duodenum relax to prepare to receive the food. You're now on your 72nd swallow of food and feeling a tad bit full. What kind of innervation do you think is involved in your sensation of "full"?arrow_forwardWhich of the following is a part of the PNS? a. microglia b. spinal cord c. brain d. neurolemmocytearrow_forward
