-
This image shows a
terminal ganglion (upper left quadrant of the image), part of the parasympathetic
division of the autonomic nervous system. It is located in the connective
tissue associated with a bronchus. Only a single neuron is visible, but they
may be others out of the plane of section. Such neurons can be identified
by their large size and their large nucleus with a single large and prominent
nucleolus.
