The sympathetic nervous system can still have an afferent component, just like the parasympathetic and peripheral nervous systems do. :smile:

Be aware that not all sympathetic neurons travel to ganglions via splanchnic nerves! Some just go right to their target after leaving the sympathetic chain.
