ANS Flashcards
somatic motor neurons use what neurotransmitter
acetylcholine
parasympathetic preganglionic neurons use what neurotransmitter
acetylcholine
parasympathetic postganglionic neurons use what neurotrasnmitter
acetylcholine to glands, cardiac, and smooth muscles
symapthetic preganglionic neurons use what neuro transmitter
acetylcholine
sympathetic postganglionic neurons use what neurotransmitter
norepinenephrine, or ACh
sensory neuorns use what neurotrasnmitters
glutamate, atp, substance P
types of receptors for ACh (parasympathetic ALL, and mainly pregang sympathetic
cholinergic (nicotinic, and muscarinic
location of nicotinic receptors
postganglionic dendrites, junctions of skeletal muscles
location of muscarinic receptors for acetylcholine
smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, gland cells, CNS
type of receptors for norepinephrine and epinephrine (alpha and beta)
adrenergic receptors
what type of response does nicotonic receptors cause
excitatory effect
parasympathetic post and preganglionic use what neurotransmitter
ACh
what type of receptors are on the parasympathetic postganglionic neuron
nicotinic receptors
for parasympathetic, what type of receptors are on the target tissue
muscarinic
what receptors are located on the sympathetic postganlionic neuron
nicotinic
what receptors are on the target tissues of the sympathetic postganglionic neurons
muscarinic or adrenergic
Adrenergic receptors are used by what neurons
sympathetic postganglionic neurons
beta receptors has a high affinity for
epinephrine
fight or flight responses
blood vessels to skin and abdominal viserca constrict
blood vessels to skeletal adn cardiac muscles dilate
increase blood glucose levels through breakdown in liver
breakdown fats, increase fatty acid in blood
what do the receptors do in the iris
- sympathetic alpha receptors dilate pupil via the dilator pupillae muscle
- parasympathetic muscarinic M receptors constrict the SPHINCTER PUPILLAE MUSCLE
what Receptors do what on the ciliary muscles
it chnages the shape of lens
sympathic beta receptors RELAX (looking far away)
parasympathetic M receptors CONTRACT (close up)
what receptors do what to the lacrimal glands
sympathetic alpha increase proteins
parasympathetic M receptors increase secretion
in the heart sympathetic receptors do what
sympathetic BETA receptors INCREASE (HR, CONTRACT, conduction,
in the heart what do parasympathetic receptors do
parasympathetic decrease hr, conduction, etc
