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
