Summary Introduction

To differentiate:

Between the prevertebral ganglia and the sympathetic trunk ganglia.

Concept introduction:

The motor component of the ANS (autonomic nervous system) is divided into the sympathetic division and the parasympathetic division. The sympathetic division is complex anatomically then the parasympathetic one. Sympathetic division is also called as the thoracolumbar division.
