The cell bodies of autonomic motor neurons are located in the

The cell bodies of the autonomic motor neurons are found in homologous cranial nerves (head) and in the visceral efferent of the spinal cords (neck, thorax, abdomen and pelvis).

Explanation:

You have to understand that the autonomic motor neurons are neurons of the autonomic nervous system.

The autonomic motor neurons can be splited into two, which are

1. Parasympathetic preganglionic neurons ... located in the homologous motor of the cranial nerves, and

2. Sympathetic prepanglionic neurons ... located in the visceral efferent of the spinal cord.

Ganglia

Explanation:

Background knowledge:

Autonomic motor neurons:

These are the neurons which lie outside of the central nervous system. These neurons are found in clusters or ganglia which are controlled by spinal cord and brainstem preganglionic neurons.

Ganglion:

These are the cluster of nerve cell bodies located in the autonomic nervous system and sensory system.
