Okay. So collateral ganglia contain which type of cell bodies? Looking here, we have a combination of preganglionic, postganglionic, parasympathetic, and sympathetic. Now, we can very easily eliminate a and b because we're talking about the sympathetic division here. Right? And we'll get to this in an upcoming video, but the parasympathetic division does not use collateral ganglia. It uses something called terminal ganglia. So a little sneak peek for you there. So a and b are out, and we're left with c and d.
Thinking about this conceptually, if we have our spinal cord, we have a collateral ganglia, say, you know, it's way out here, kind of close to the effector organ. Let's just say that it's the heart, for example. Alright. So we're going to have our impulse originate here in the spinal cord. That is the cell body of our preganglionic fiber, right? Where that impulse is being generated. And it's going to come into our collateral ganglia and synapse, which means that that message is being received by the dendrites of the postganglionic neuron inside of this collateral ganglia. So that is where the cell body of our postganglionic fiber is. So, looking at our answer choices, it looks like d would be correct. Our collateral ganglia contain the cell bodies of our postganglionic fibers in our sympathetic division. And there you go.
