Peripheral Nervous System
peripheral nerves
Somatic
Controls skeletal muscles (voluntary)
Autonomic
Controls involuntary actions
Sympathetic
Fight or flight response
Increased HR, bronchodilation, pupil dilation, decreased digestion, pilo erection, bladder relaxation
Parasympathetic
returns body to normal
decreased HR, bronchoconstriction, hair relaxation, pupil constriction, increased digestion, bladder constriction.
Acetylcholine
ACH neurotransmitter for parasympathetic. Decreases HR
Norepinephrine
NE Neurotransmitter for the sympathetic. Increased HR
ACH binds with what type of receptors?
Nicotinic, Muscarinic, cholinergic
What is the effect of ACH in the parasympathetic?
ACH binds with muscarinic receptors in the parasympathetic and the effect is a slow heart rate.
What does norepinephrine bind with?
Adrenergic receptors
What is the effect of norepinephrine in the sympathetic?
increased HR
Stimulation of alpha receptors causes what effect?
Vasoconstriction
Stimulation of Beta 1 causes what effect?
increased HR
Stimulation of Beta 2 causes what effect?
bronchodilation
Stimulation of Dopamine causes was effect?
Relaxation of renal arteries and increased perfusion

blocks the response.
What are the effects of parasympatholytics?
Increased HR
(sympathetic)
What are the effects of sympathomimetics?
Increased HR
(sympathetic)
Explain the termination of ACh?
AChE Destroys the excess ACh.
Explain the termination of NE?
MAO reuptakes the excess NE for later use.
Epinephrine is also known as?
Adrenaline
What is epinephrine used for?
Anaphylactic shock
Norepinephrine is an alpha agonist. what is it use for?
Vasoconstriction used to treat low blood pressure.
Alpha adrenergic agents are used for?
