There are different types of ganglia! The two main kinds are spinal ganglia and autonomic ganglia. Spinal ganglia are found near the spine and send messages to the brain about touch, pain, or
temperature. 🧊❄️ Autonomic ganglia, on the other hand, help control things we don’t think about, like our heartbeat and digestion. ❤
️🍽️ There are also sensory ganglia that help us sense things, like seeing and hearing! So, when you see something funny, your sensory ganglia help send that message to your brain! 🤣
Ganglia work together to keep us safe and informed.
