1
Q
All nerves synapse on what type of receptors
A
Nicotinic
2
Q
All parasympathetic postganglionic nerves release what neurotransmitter on what type of receptor
A
- Acetylcholine
- muscarinic receptors
3
Q
The majority of postganglionic sympathetic nerves release what neurotransmitter? What receptors does this neurotransmitter bind to?
A
- NE
- Alpha 1, alpha 2, beta 1
4
Q
What drives the heart
A
Beta 1 receptor activation
- increases cAMP which increases HR
5
Q
What innervated beta 2 receptors
A
epinephrine
- B2 receptors found on blood vessels, cause dilation to BV to muscles during sympathetic response
6
Q
Where are B2 receptors found?
A
- BV
- bronchioles
- cause vasodilation in both; stimulated during sympathetic response
7
Q
Diastolic pressure is a measure of
A
Vasoconstriction, which is done via alpha 1 receptor stimulation
