40
The sympathetic nervous system causes pupils to
dilate
41

decrease
44
The sympathetic nervous system causes blood vessels in skeletal muscles to
dilate
45
The parasympathetic nervous system causes blood vessels in skeletal muscles to
constrict
46
The parasympathetic nervous system causes blood vessels in heart muscles to
constrict
47
The sympathetic nervous system causes blood vessels in heart muscles to
dilate
48
The sympathetic nervous system causes blood vessels in abdominal viscera and skin to
constrict
49
The parasympathetic nervous system causes blood vessels in abdominal viscera and skin to
dilate
50

dilate
53
The parasympathetic nervous system causes bronchioles to
constrict
54
The sympathetic nervous system causes rate of breathing to
increase
55
The parasympathetic nervous system causes rate of breathing to
decrease
56
The sympathetic nervous system causes peristaltic movement of digestive tubes to
decrease | resulting to constipation
57
The parasympathetic nervous system causes peristaltic movement of digestive tubes to
increase | resulting in diarrhea
58
The sympathetic nervous system causes secretion of salivary glands to
be thick and viscid
59
The parasympathetic nervous system causes secretion of salivary glands to
be watery and thin
60
The sympathetic nervous system causes secretions of stomach, intestines, and pancreas to
decrease | thereby decreasing HCl production
61
The parasympathetic nervous system causes secretions of stomach, intestines, and pancreas to
increase | thereby increasing HCl production
62
The sympathetic nervous system causes the urinary bladder to
relax | resulting to low urine output
63
