Side A ------ Side B
The ________ division of the autonomic nervous system is said to function during "rest and digest."
 ------ parasympathetic 
Preganglionic fibers leave the CNS and then synapse on ------ ganglionic neurons.
During sympathetic activation, ________ occurs. ------ elevated blood glucose, elevated blood pressure, sweating, and elevated heart rate
A person is confronted by a dangerous dog. His heart begins to race and beat strongly, his pupils dilate, and his hairs stand up. These signs are the result of ------ the "flight or fight" response, sympathetic activation, increased levels of epinephrine in the bloodstream, and increased activity of automatic centers in the hypothalamus

The statement "Preganglionic axon terminals release acetylcholine" is ------ is true for both sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system
Dual innervation refers to an organ receiving ------ both sympathetic and parasympathetic innervation
In general, autonomic tone of peripheral blood vessels increases when ------ sympathetic stimulation is increased.
Which of the following is essential for memory consolidation? ------ hippocampus
A state of unconsciousness in which an individual can be aroused by normal stimuli is ------ sleep

How many neurons comprise the somatic nervous system pathway? ------ two
What are the effectors of the autonomic nervous system pathway? ------ cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and glands
