Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line
To print: Ctrl+PPrint as a list

front 18

Which of the following statements concerning the parasympathetic division
of the autonomic nervous system is false?

The ganglionic neurons always release acetylcholine.

Preganglionic neurons are located in the brain stem and sacral region of the spinal
cord.

Preganglionic fibers are relatively short and postganglionic fibers are relatively
long.

Ganglionic neurons are located in ganglia within or near to effectors.

sympathetic division.

back 18

Preganglionic fibers are relatively short and postganglionic fibers are relatively
long.

front 19

To say that most organs innervated by the ANS have 'dual innervation'
means that:
