Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The parasympathetic division generally has long preganglionic fibres, and shorter postganglionic fibres.

Answer: B 
 The sympathetic division generally has short preganglionic fibres and long postganglionic fibres.

Answer: C 
 Both the parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions have control over autonomic features and may have varying lengths of preganglionic and postganglionic fibres.

Answer: D 
 This is not a valid choice as all autonomic features are regulated by either the parasympathetic or sympathetic division or both.
