2. The Sympathetic Nervous System.

This system consists of a cord on each side closely following the

course of the systemic arches and the dorsal aorta. It has on it six

ganglionic swellings, and there are connections between the ganglia

and all the spinal nerves. Anteriorly each of the cords is joined to

the vagus nerve; it ends posteriorly as a broad swelling on the ninth

spinal nerve.

[_In the Frog the system consists of a chain of ganglia on each side

of the body closely following the course of the systemic arches and

the dorsal aorta. The cords have connections with the spinal nerves.

Anteriorly each cord ends in the Gasserian ganglion of the trigeminal

nerve and posteriorly it is united with the coccygeal nerve by a

varying number of branches._]

Make a complete sketch showing the spinal nerves and the sympathetic

nervous system.
