A

Within a organ

17
Q

What is the function of Nicotinic Receptors in the parasympathic division

A

Excitation

18
Q

What is the function of Muscarinic Receptors in the parasympathic division

A

Acts Through Enzymes

Both inhibitory and excitatory

19
Q

Actions of the Parasympathic Division

A

Conserves energy and promotes anabolic reactions
Decreased metabolic rate, heart rate, and blood pressure
Increased salivary and digestive glands secretion
Increased motility and blood flow in digestive tract
Urination and defecation stimulation

20
Q

What is Nicotine

A

A dangerous toxin that binds to the nicotinic receptors and targets autonomic ganglia and skeletal neuromuscular

21
Q

What are mushrooms and toadstools

A

They bind to the muscarine receptors and it targets parasympathic neuromuscular or neurogladular

22
Q

Dual Innervation in relation to Sympathic

A

Wide spread, organs and tissues

23
Q

Dual Innervation in relation to parasympathic

A

Only 1 and specific visceral structures

24
Q

what is Autonomic Tone

A

ANS function

25
Q

if a nerve is inactive..

A

increase in activity only

26
Q

Nerve maintains background activity..

A

Both a increase and decrease in activity

27
Q

If the Blood Vessel Dilates

A

Blood flow will increase blood pressure will decrease

28
Q

If the blood vessel Constricts

A

Blood flow will Decrease blood pressure will increase
