I was also having problems with this, but through the great invention of Google Books I found a good review of this in an embryo book online:
Basic concepts in embryology: a student's survival guide
By Lauren J. Sweeney
Pg. 196
And I found it on the internet so it has to be true.
: Hi,
: As I study the tutorial, I had a question regarding SVE and GVE nerves. I am having difficulty classifying SVE or GVE fibers as parasympathetic or sympathetic. I feel that I can find clarity if I can understand the answers to the following two questions:
: 1. Must all SVE or GVE functional components be composed of parasympathetic or sympathetic fibers as opposed to somatic fibers?
: 2. Can we assume, if the answer to question 1 is yes, that SVE or GVE fibers that stimulate digestion and slow non-digestion related functions (such as cardiovascular related functions) are all parasympathetic?
: Thanks,
: Mitch
