This page covers biological details of component Petrosal Ganglion. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• Top-down path to region: Peripheral Nervous System -> Sensory Ganglia (PN.SG) -> Petrosal Ganglion (LPC.PN.SG.PET) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: sensory ganglion
• Brain area: Lower Brain - Peripheral Control Area
• Role: sensory
• Function: Integration of afferent signaling from viscera
• Notes to function: mucous membranes of pharynx, middle ear, carotid body and sinus, taste sensor on the posterior third of tongue to SOL
