For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_PARASYMPATHETIC_NERVOUS_SYSTEM_DEVELOPMENT

Standard name GOBP_PARASYMPATHETIC_NERVOUS_SYSTEM_DEVELOPMENT
Systematic name M16085
Brief description The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the parasympathetic nervous system over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The parasympathetic nervous system is one of the two divisions of the vertebrate autonomic nervous system. Parasympathetic nerves emerge cranially as pre ganglionic fibers from oculomotor, facial, glossopharyngeal and vagus and from the sacral region of the spinal cord. Most neurons are cholinergic and responses are mediated by muscarinic receptors. The parasympathetic system innervates, for example: salivary glands, thoracic and abdominal viscera, bladder and genitalia. [FMA:9907, GOC:jid, GOC:sr]
