The somatic NS starts where?
in the somatic motor association area
The somatic NS has how many motor neurons...and target is....
has one motor neuron to the target which is skeletal muscle tissue
THe NT used by the somatic NS are?
The NT used is ACh and is always excitatory
The autonomic NS is responsible for....
the unconscious control of the visceral organs
The autonomic NS starts where....and the target is?
has 2 motor neurons to the target which is cardiac muscle tissue, smooth muscle tissue, and glands.
What are the NT used in autonomic NS?
the neurotransmitters used are ACh, NE, and E and can be excitatory or inhibitory
Sympathetic NS generates what?
the fight or flight response
physical effects of Sympathetic NS?
incr heart rate
incr resp
incr blood circulation
decr digestion
vasoconstriction of blood vessels
incr B/P
dilation of pupil
Sympathetic preganglionic releases what and postganglionic releases what?
preganglionic releases ACh, postganglionic releases nicotinic ACh, NE, and E
the target organ has alpha/beta receptors and may be excitatory or inhibitory
Parasympathetic NS generates the...
resting and digesting response
physical signs of parasympathetic NS....
decr heart rate
decr resp
decr blood circulation
incr digestion
vasodilation of blood vessels
decr B/P
constriction of pupil
preganglionic neuron of parasympathetic NS releases what....and post releases what?
preganglionic neuron releases ACh, postganglionic neuron has nicotinic ACh receptors which are always excitatory
the target organ of parasympathetic NS has what receptors?>
The target organ has muscarinic ACh receptors which can be excitatory or inhibitory
dual innervation
most organs are innervated by bothe the parasympathetic and sympathetic NS...the NS will have opposing effects
autonomic tone
the organs are ennervated by the sympathetic NS only....amt of stimulation determines the overall effect
