true or false, in the modified sympathetic nervous system, adrenaline is released to the postganglionic neuron to target cell?
|
no, preganglionic
|
|
true or false, in the modified sympathetic nervous system, adrenaline is released from teh adrenal medulla when its activated by postganglionic parasympathetic innervation?
|
false, preganglionic
|
|
true or false, in the modified sympathetic nervous system, adrenaline is released from teh adrenal medualla into the bloodstream?
|
true
|
|
true or false, in the modified sympathetic nervous system, results of adrenaline on target tissues are almost identiacal to that of the parasympathetic nervous system?
|
false, the sympathetic nervous system
|
|
what is the purpose of alpha blockers?
|
to promote actions of NA or inhibit muscarinic, these cause sympathetic effects
|
|
what is the purpose of beta blockers?
|
mimics the parasympathetic, slows down the heart. Promote muscarinic actions of ACh or inhibit actions of NA
|
|
true or false, all adrenoreceptors are G-protein coupled?
|
true
|
|
what is characterisitic of g-protein coupling.
|
slow, long-lasting response. Local effect
|
|
what is the length of the axons in the preganglionic sympathetic division?
what do they release, what does it bind to? |
short
ACh nAChR |
|
what is the length of the axons of in the postganglionic sympathetic division?
what do they release, what does it bind to? |
long
NA AR (adernergic receptors) |
|
what is the length of the axons in the preganglionic parasympathetic division?
what does it realease, what does it bind to? |
long
ACh nAChR |
|
what is the length of postganglionic parasympathetic division?
what does it release, what does it bind to? |
short
ACh mAChR (muscarinic acetyl choline receptor) |
|
do second order neurons (postganglionic)have myelination?
|
no
|
|
where is the soma for second order neurons?
|
in the PNS
|
|
exception: for the second order neurons sympathetic innervation of sweat glands, what is released, and what does it bind to?
|
ACh
mAChR |
|
true or false, binding of ACh to nAChR causes slow EPSP's that trigger AP in the postganglionic cell?
|
false, they are fast
|
|
true or false, the binding of ACh to mAChR (G-protein coupled) causes slow EPSP's or IPSP's?
|
true
|
|
parasympathetic is local or diffuse?
|
local
|
|
sympathetic is local or diffuse?
|
diffuse b/c it enters the bloodstream
|
|
True or false, the purpose of neuromodulators is to trigger an AP?
|
false, they are used to modulate the postganglionic response to ACh
