Axons Exit the Sympathetic Chain Ganglia by All of the Following

Question

Axons exit the sympathetic chain ganglia by all of the following except
A) spinal nerves.
B) cranial nerves.
C) splanchnic nerves.
D) sympathetic nerves.
E) nerves that innervate the adrenal medulla.

Accepted Answer

Cranial nerves do not serve as a pathway for axons exiting the sympathetic chain ganglia. The sympathetic nervous system primarily interacts with the body through spinal nerves, splanchnic nerves, sympathetic nerves, and nerves that innervate the adrenal medulla, but not through cranial nerves, which are part of the peripheral nervous system and primarily serve the head and neck.
